PrintStop me if you've heard this one before... The St. Louis Rams will be without starting LG Jacob Bell for 4-6 weeks. Bell had his knee scoped today according to Brian Stull of ESPN 101.
The good news is that Bell will be back in plenty of time for training camp which should start sometime around the end of July. He also has a year, a good year, with Spagnuolo under his belt, so it's not like he has to re-learn the offense or anything like that. The bad news is that he's having arthroscopic surgery, which isn't a major procedure, but nothing to be taken lightly...it is surgery after all.
Signing Hank Fraley looks even better now, and the coaches will be keeping a close eye on John Greco, Roger Allen, etc. At least OG is a position where the Rams have some depth.
In other injury news OT Jason Smith is cleared for takeoff as is WR Laurent Robinson, WR Brooks Foster and DT Gary Gibson. All four will be full participants at OTAs.

Great news about laurent robinson
I knew jason smith was okay and i dont care about the others but I am thrilled to see robinson is finally back in action. This guy looked great before his injury. Hopefully he can stay healthy this time.
I still wonder about Keenan Burton and BFB
Burton’s getting pushed out of the rotation and BFB’s injury was horrible. I haven’t much on either in a long time
You don't seem to want to accept the fact you're dealing with an expert in guerrilla warfare, with a man who's the best, with guns, with knives, with his bare hands. A man who's been trained to ignore pain, ignore weather, to live off the land, to eat things that would make a billy goat puke. In *St. Louis* his job was to dispose of enemy personnel. To kill! Period! Win by attrition. Well, *Steven Jackson* was the best.
Fletcher is doing limited work on the sidelines
as is ah you and burton while they recover. Fletcher is supposed to be on target for camp.

Hopefully Robinson gets back everything he had before he went down last year and an extra big hopefully the entire team stays healthy this year
If practice makes perfect....
Yet nobodies perfect.....
Then why practice ???
good news about smith, bummer about bell.
If JS is going to disprove the “shoulda taken monroe/oher” crowd, it’s gonna take reps this summer to get there. BFB’s recovery is of great interest to me, as well. I’m hoping he’s sleeping in one of those pure oxygen things. hyperbaric chamber. yeah.
block! building kick! exploooooooosion!
