Rams must wait to begin talks
The NFL won't allow the St. Louis Rams to begin negotiating with players they're considering taking with the No. 2 pick in Saturday's NFL draft.
The issue arose after Miami struck a deal yesterday with Michigan tackle Jake Long to be the No. 1 selection.
According to a story recently posted on the St. Louis Post-Dispatch website, the NFL has a policy that only the team picking first can negotiate with a potential pick before the draft begins. The rule could be reconsidered in the future to address situations just as this, however.
It is widely believed that the Rams will choose from three options: LSU defensive tackle Glenn Dorsey, Virginia defensive end Chris Long or trading down. A deal-down likely would be with a team targetting Dorsey, such as New Orleans, which currently has the 10th pick.

Who cares about the rams right now all I know is that we should get Dexter Jackson and Corey Lynch in this draft these guys play excellent against the Michgan Wolfverine ( I know I spell that wrong) and beat them the same Michgan who beat the Florida Gator one of the SEC toughest and best team. All I know is those guys are going to be GREAT! at the next level.

I love Dexter, but I don't think we could use him with all our WR depth...
On the other hand, I would LOVE to add Corey Lynch to the roster... he's got great character coming out of his ears and he just knows how to be a playmaker. Seems to always be in the right place at the right time. With our weak depth at FS, this could be a very good option in the later rounds.

Wow,
Does this kid speak english? Sorry to tell you "telling it like it is", but i honestly think that you could have some serious educational issues! I hope that this is a joke, b/c if it isn't I fear for the state of our nation. Not to be mean spirited, but a retarded spider monkey with one eye and no arms could spell better than that. Unless you are 5yr old child with LD, then you should get some serious help. Could you even read the article about which you are blogging? By the way; jackson and lynch are not going to be impact players at the next level. AA is not the same. They played a great game against Michigan and I think APP is a great program, but they are not NFL material. Go OT in the first round and the rest will fall into place.
