I like Michael Floyd of ND as the #1 pick over Blackmon. He plays faster and is more advanced in his route running. He should help out Sam quicker than Blackmon can. I like Doug Martin of Boise State is 2nd round to help out SJ39. He's a different type of RB to add to the mix. Do you think this could be in the cards for the Rams? -
The Rams like Floyd a lot. But scouts I talk to don't think Floyd's playing speed matches up to his timed speed. For all the talk about his big play ability at Notre Dame, he averaged 11.5 yards a catch last season. So I think the Rams pick would be Blackmon over Floyd if they stay at No. 6. -

The Rams have worked out San Diego State's Brian Stahovich; and visited Cal's Bryan Anger in California. They've also shown some interest in Florida State's Shawn Powell. It's supposed to be a decent year for punters in the draft. Here's a link to my draft series story on the punters:

A good question, particularly since the Rams just re-did Jason Smith's contract. I think they would really try to trade down if Kalil is there at No. 6; perhaps with Buffalo at No. 10. But if they couldn't trade down, I think they'd be happy with Kalil and talk to Mr. Smith about playing left guard. I'm not sure how the Rams rate the four, but I think they like the two skill players best (Richardson and Blackmon). -

This belief that Kendall Wright is small and somehow slow because of a bad combine 40 time is crazy. Wright plays to a 4.3, gets off the line quickly, can beat press, separates vertically as well as horizontally, runs sharp routes and is very competitive, is more than just a slot guy, and as you said earlier - the tape doesn't lie. Everyone wants a Calvin or Andre Johnson, but 6'3"+/220 lb+ WR's who can run 4.3 and ACTUALLY PLAY are as rare as rare can be. The thing with Blackmon and Floyd (to a lesser extent) that scares me is that so many of their receptions are contested and against top NFL CB's ... who knows. Blackmon may compare to Anquan Boldin, but Wright equally compares to Steve Smith. Maybe it's just whatever flavor one likes. -

Like I just said, the Rams have signed 11 free agents total, and 10 from other teams, including a $10 million a year cornerback (Finnegan), a $6 million a year center (Wells), and a $6 million a year defensive tackle (Langford). They executed a huge trade with Washington. I don't consider that quiet. There isn't much left in the free agenty market right now, and the team is zeroed in on the draft. -
Big fan of Steven Jackson here so I hope he is not traded but let's play that game for a second. Let's say that Richardson is there for the Rams to take. What do you think about the following scenario? Rams select Richardson, then they trade Jackson and a mid-round pick to the Steelers for Wallace (it would have to be a sign and trade). We have free up some cap space with restructuring Smith's contract. -
Although a Jackson trade could happen if the Rams draft Richardson, why not keep them both? Why not have at least one position of strength on the roster? It would be very easy to get Jackson 250 carries and Richardson 150 in 2012. Jackson already has indicated a sincere willingness to work with Richardson and try to mentor him. -

If the season started tomorrow, Laurinaitis would be in the middle, Jo-Lonn Dunbar would be outside, and then ???? The only other LBs on the roster right now are Josh Hull and Justin Cole. Here's a link to today's draft preview story on linebackers: www.stltoday.com -
