And people are saying we are just lucky we stumbled on to him. They knew who and what they were drafting in Puka. Awesome young guy.
Sean mcvay went to UGA most of the rams defense went to UGA 💪🏿💨💨💨 you see where I’m going with this
@@beaminbeamin I actually don't lol. McVay went to college and so did Puka, albeit on different ends of the country and in different decades?
then why wait til pick 177 😛
@@rooboo614because his value was a round later. So they picked him a round before. No sense picking him several rounds before where you could’ve gotten him.
For sure, but I’d be willing to bet he exceeded expectations. Dude is already trending to stardom.
"He tested really poorly" I'm glad that what he said wasn't the deciding factor of Rams not drafting Puka. Because clearly whatever that test was, it didn't matter lol.
They can't 'test' the size of a mans heart or how much he wants to succeed and work hard to get better.
Usually a Wonderlic test
@@headzonsight7009 I think it was about his 40 time
Yeah they were talking about his 40 time which is 4.6
Demoff, Snead, and Coach get no love for what they've accomplished in 7 years together!!! Just extraordinary success together!
Oh they get a lot of love for sure only some dumb fans think they know better behind a keyboard.
❤indeed coming from a die hard St Louis Rams loyalty over location ❤
@@jamicoholmes6345stl fan as well. Still alot of us
The literal steal of the draft. I bet 31 teams would have liked to have done that one over.
I absolutely don't believe other teams could make him as successful if they drafted him.
@@yl9941 yea not to take anything away from him but if he doesnt have coop to learn from and matthew throwing to him he doesnt have this season, also to be in the position to even start week 1. glad it all worked out the way it did, this offseason revitalized our team
@@YodaXIIII'm a Rams fan, and I couldn't agree with you more. I think he went to the PERFECT sspot. Having Cooper Kupp and Matthew Stafford to learn from each and every day absolutely helped. I think there were not many teams that he could have went to and had this kind of success. Perfect system. Especially with all the ways that they utilize him
@@yl9941 Only other teams I can think of is like, the Packers or Vikings. Neither Love or Cousins would have given him his crazy stats like Stafford though that’s for sure.
More like 31x5 = 155 teams.
Rams sure nailed it with this pick
The steal of the draft IMO
Breaking two rookie records. If he aint, I don't know who is.
This is one of the best drafts of all time considering the circumstances. Not one first round pick yet they have 4 guys going in the first round in re-drafts. Puka, Avila, Turner, Young
In terms of pure value it might be the best ever.
People always forget the punter Evans as well he has a leg.
@@user-kx1do6nl6n Yeesh. After a season? The '74 Steelers would like a word.
Rams patting themselves on the back with this video, and RIGHTLY SO! Love you Puka
These draft behind the scenes and phone calls are THE BEST!! Puka is a star, well done RAMS!
My man Les sorting by MPH ! Sometimes it's not all about the 40.
Fairly certain he was saying his game speed is comparable to most other guys and that his 40 time was misleading
McVay is a visionary
it will not be much ?
@@grupocolosalgrupocolosal856Que? Mas explique por favor.
and vision is scary.
Unbelievable that he was the 20th receiver taken in his class
Come on now Puka and Kyren in the 5th round kobie turner in the third round and i think i heard one of our tackles was undrafted!! we had 36 rookies this year. All i heard from friends (especially 49er fans) that we were going to be rebuilding and MAYBE get in the playoffs in the third year. that we would finish with 4 wins at MOST. I actually got laughed at when i called 10-7 for this year and i freely admit even i did not believe we would do 10-7 but i was bragging on my RAMS. what a great year!
I'm with you. I told the majority of my friends even when the Rams fell to 3-6 the Rams are still going to make the playoffs and go on to win the Super Bowl this year! They haven't won the Super Bowl but still people called me crazy but yet they made the playoffs. Go Rams! Love your post 😊!!!
Wow, seeing Les Snead in action, awesome!
Met him in stl at a fan fest, he talked to me and my dad for about 5 minutes. I really appreciated him appreciating our passion and knowledge of the game as well.
Biggest steal in the draft
Yes sir !
Not hyperbole, he really is.
History int he making .... drafts. behind the seen. Go RAMS
RECORD BREAKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Les and Sean, they are the dynamic duo with the picks. Les said it, Sean has a vision.
Let’s make a deep playoff run🤑
Legends at work.
Puka always be sounding high lol. Love that dude!!!
This is so cool to watch
Talk about being spot on with a pick
Love this team no matter what, been a fan since them rough St louis days, to live and die in LA 🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏
i cant wait for this next draft
... chills ...
So proud of this dude! Go Rams!!
.....and the rest is history!!!
INCREDIBLE
The thing is many teams could have drafted Puka. But he wouldn't have the success that he does on the Rams. The reason he is so great is how the Rams use him. He is Kupps successor and the Rams use him like they use Kupp. I drafted Puka in most of my fantasy teams because I saw how similar he was to Kupp. Let's go Rams!
Let’s goooo!!!!
This makes me smile
Were looking at possibly the greatest OC/Coach weve ever seen. And as a GM to have the faith to in his coach and go with it...man impressive
The steal of the 2023 draft!!!!
Might be asking too much here but can y'all release the Byron Young and Kobie Turner drafting tapes as well? Huge fan of them both tbh
Yes please
Y’all should watch behind the grind episode 2, they have these clips for both of them.
Seeing this, and then witnessing the outcome after a full regular season of football. For him to break the record. McVay called it. He saw something and boy did that pick pay off big time.
Pukaaaa!!!!
GOATS @ Work!!! 🤘
How to not love this guys and the brain that they put on it ❤
Hey rams. I really like these inside looks on how the draft process plays out. Please post more if you’re able.
Thanks!
Perfect for the Rams system.
Les and McVay are the best in the business.
I told my football buddies we had 34 rookies in camp they laughed they ain’t laughing anymore
Nailed it!
LesSnead, John McKay, James Gladstone and company pulled off some amazing acquisitions in the Draft Lab. Kobe Turner, Puka Nacua and Kyren Williams should be in the Pro Bowl next month.
i’m a philly fan and i love this dude great pick LA you got yourselves a future HOF in my eyes
Fkn love this 💯💯💯💙💛
I love how fluid this kid is no wasted movements kid just has no hesitation.
"You know what it takes!"
seeing him live jst made it evn better 😮💨 kupp a dawg too!
What a great player, way to go RAMS....
They nailed it 🎯 respect
Let me be the first to say I used to slander Les Snead A LOT. For most of his time as GM he simply just brought in big name players via trade. Which is fine, but homie never really showed he could build a team through the draft until NOW. Steve Avila, Byron Young, Kobie Turner, Puka Nacua in ONE draft? Maaaaan idk if people realize how crazy of a turnout that is for one draft class. Snead definitely did his homework
Les has drafted AD, Kupp, Higbee, Big Rob, Williams, Durant, E Jones, and I am sure others. yes he drafted some duds, but for the most part he has drafted some gems. Exec of the year IMO.
One of the biggest steals in the draft. Puka has been that guy since HS.
Anybody whos gone to a football camp or tryout knows that tests can't tell who will ball.
OROY!
This was an awesome video
Rams with another steal in the draft. Love our team 🤙🏽
Thats my GM and Coach right there!!! 🐏
Amazing.
Historic and monumental moment
Love it
lovee this teaaam
Nice to show this before the playoffs start
Man what a pick.
You guys all look the same 😂😂😂 looks like a family reunion more than a draft room 😂😂
LETS GO RAMS
Wish I could've bought his jersey on draft day
The rams and Mcvay made a correct call and Puka is a steal at the position in the draft. He’s now better than Copper Kupp and it’s only his first year. He’s going to be the number 1 receiver in the NFL as years progress.
Amazing title
Go Rams
they really nailed that pick
I didn't know Sean McVay was bald on top.😂
You can't measure passion on a draft board, you can see many players have talent, but measuring passion is hard!
Ok Les with the Travis Scott 1 I see you
See with receivers like Kupp & Puka they aint gonna be that X or Y receivers on any other team! Its the system fit
Underrated comment! GMs and coaches need to recruit more to their systems vs just raw numbers. They need to look at the whole package and match to their system/program
Yesir great coach builds great teams like Bill and NE
And the rest is history on NFL Days.
Wow
😢Brought a little bit to my eyes!
Trust the process
Rams nailed that pick! Go Cougs!
Puuuuka
All part of the plan.
Stan Kroenke wants to keep Les and Sean in his stable after striking gold in this draft
Bud Grant didn't worry about 40s n bench press....can he play football
Go lions
Only true rams fans can like this comment.
I just know a LA whiner fan liked this just to be “funny”
But they just wanna be a rams fans
they are just confused,
they haven’t had a team to be proud of since TO and Jeff Garcia 🤣🤣🤌they stated Trent, Warner, ayuk, crybaby Samuel, and C ward
Wentz did well but if that was Mathew.. we’re talking 5 tds
And if that was Brock
We’re talking 4 picks
Guess what, I’m not a Rams fan and I’m liking your comment 😈
i see what you did there
Only 200 of you
@@younggiraffe1982 you menace 😢

McVay is going bald
You more than likely will too. Not sure why it needs to be pointed out.
@@thatboy3930 No, nobody in my family has ever gone bald. We take care of ourselves
@@Dodgers-sw2uk Intelligence doesn't run in the family apparently.
LOL
Is the girl in the white named Jordan? Lol
A better Robert woods
