Rams ROI in these two rookies will pay out a sensational jackpot in 2024

Can't overstate the passion and hunger of Verse/Fiske duo

Some persons interpret a sense of hubris and overconfidence when praised and value by others. If you have know narcissists, you recognize the characteristics of how virtually everything becomes reworked into being about that person.

On the opposite side of the coin, there are those who recognize the intrinsic value of someone exhibiting unsolicited faith in that person. It's the person who is hired to a responsible job without a resume that supports the hire. It's the person who is entrusted with responsibility before they have earned that level of trust. It's the rookie prospect who was valued so highly that the team traded significant value to move up the draft board just to select that player.

It's the act of one team going to great lengths to ensure two very good friends and teammates continue their football careers together:

Having served in the military, I can say with first-hand knowledge that being placed into a role of responsibility can have life-changing effects on a young man. Once you are promoted into a leadership role, your peripheral vision about what you do, and how you impact those around you, is focused and you suddenly become acutely aware of everything around you.

The impact upon Jared Verse and Braden Fiske after being drafted to the team together seems to have impacted them in a similar way. Both players are extremely grateful to the Rams football organization for taking that effort to keep both players together through their first rookie contract.
