Rams cut Pisa Tinoisamoa

I know, I know... another should we thread. Below is his scouts inc evaluation. He is 27yo, 6'1" and 240#. Cut by the sorrry a** rams, but led them in tackles last year and probably deserves a look considering our needs at linebacker.

Comment: He plays with very good lateral quickness and can change directions quickly. He has speed to the sideline with burst to close. He lacks overall strength to play stout, but can be aggressive on entry into blocks. He will stay stuck too long at times and lose ground working to escape. He still enters into some lead block contact with his shoulder first. He has good balance, but will get bounced. He is quick enough to sidestep or elude contact on his path to the ball. He has range and can close quickly from the backside to make plays. He usually provides good wrap on tackles and has some pop to him when he squares up. In coverage, he has good awareness. He'll stay on the field when the Rams go to nickel personnel. He is aggressive with his reads and will bite occasionally on play-action. He moves well in space, changes direction quickly and can recover from false steps. His overall reactions are adequate. He can close quickly after making reads. He is a productive player with good speed and range, when healthy.

I think he could be a possibilty. Then Orakpo could go DE.

Im all for signing the guy, he makes tackles and is only 27 years old.

Rams release leading tackler Tinoisamoa

Rams released LB Pisa Tinoisamoa.

This is a case of a good player not fitting his new coach's scheme, but it's still surprising that the Rams would release last year's team leader in tackles. Though the Rams tried Pisa at SAM linebacker last month at minicamp, he didn't have the size to stay there. Chris Draft is now the favorite to start next to James Laurinitis and Will Witherspoon.
