Rams WR Mardy Gilyard chugs Pepsi, talks playbook

by Ryan Van Bibber on Nov 24, 2010 2:52 PM CST in 2010 St. Louis Rams season

I know what you're thinking, is St. Louis Rams' rookie wide receiver Mardy Gilyard an iPhone or an Android guy? Does he prefer the Cardinals or the Reds when it comes to baseball? And what about that whole playbook thing?

Aaron Hooks from SBN St. Louis recently had the chance to talk to the Rams fourth round pick. Let's hear more from Mardy.

For some odd inexplicable reason

I just lost a little respect for him.

DX is back this week. He said that he is ready to go and eager

Great candid interview

Although the fact that he’s so daunted by the playbook size is unsettling.

I like Mardy and I hope next season he can really start to pull it together.

Mardy who?

you know, the playbook guy

The only thing comparable to a Rams win is a 49er loss!

Mardy

I liked him. I hope he works out.

Im sorry I like the guy

But I just haven’t seen anything that makes me think he is going to be something in the NFL. He doesn’t have top end speed, he’s not really that tall, and he just doesn’t do anything better than any of our other receivers. Personally I would take Gibson over him anyday.

which is perfectly normal and obvious

since Gibson has more experience and their talent when they were drafted is basically a wash (4th-5th round)

I would have kept Burton in his place much stronger WR

where they got drafted is irrelevant

producing and improvement is what I am looking for. Gibson continues to show that the guy can be a producer in the NFL. Good size, quickness and ability to get open makes him one of the WR’s I actually like seeing each week along with Amendola and hopefully Alexander.

Disappointed

I’m disappointed in Gilyard. I was really excited for him to turn out to be a play maker. To be fair tho, it’s only his first season. Some guys take long to develop.

I, too, would pick Gibson over Gilyard at this time.
