I'd like to see how Battle does with Marrone coaching. Might be able to push LJ

Battle is interesting as a developmental guy.  The Rams in first taking him acknowledged that he would need to be developed for a year and really start his rookie year in 2016.

Problem is who do we waive from the 53 to keep him since he probably would get snatched off a PS by someone

<p class="" style="color:rgb(41,47,51);font-family:'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">So two 2015 fourth round picks were waived this weekend: PIT CB Doran Grant (OSU) and CLE WR Vince Mayle (Wash St).

I heard/read good things about the kid. Be interested to see who takes a flier on him.
