Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Rams all-decade team: free safety

We continue with the St. Louis Rams all-decade team, today jumping into the safety spot. The Rams have had some pretty memorable players with notable stints in St. Louis at safety, both free and strong, and I think the voting will be tougher than some of the other spots on the roster.

We'll pick the free and strong safeties today, the corners tomorrow and wrap up the all-decade defense before turning to the offense.

Cornerback Aeneas Williams, always one of my favorites, joined the Rams prior to the 2001 season, playing corner for two seasons before switching to free safety for two seasons, not uncommon for an older but skilled cornerback.

Remember Mike Furrey? He had a nice season as a FS in 2005, grabbing 4 INTs and 1 TD, before reuniting with Mike Martz in Detroit and returning to his WR role.

Alright, make your voice heard.

Aeneas

went with him…Tough though.

I believe in 2010

I'd take Williams all day long

        Probably due in part to his service as a CB though. Too hard to differentiate.

I'll take

Mike Furrey he’s a 1000 yard receiver in one of his seasons and had like 4 picks for the rams at safety. I would take OJ, I think Aeneas is a heck of a football player but his true position where i remember him making plays was at corner.
