Around SBN: Josh Hamilton's Unique Public Statement On His Addiction

Roster battles: Rams backup running backs

Besides the 15 or so snaps that Sam Bradford will have to cement his grip on the week 1 starting job, the real story for the St. Louis Rams in tonight's preseason finale will be sorting out the depth chart. 

We've prattled on quite enough about the various merits of players at contested spots like backup running back, third QB and cornerback depth. It's time to gauge the pulse of the nation with an unscientific poll...or even a series of them leading up to tonight's game.

Just like the last poll, but this time it's all about which RB gets the primary backup job behind Steven Jackson. 

Kenneth Darby, Chris Ogbonnaya and Keith Toston have all looked about the same, which isn't to say that any of them have made fans feel better should the Rams have a game without Steven Jackson.  

It's still very likely that that player could be found when teams make their final cuts this weekend, as some franchises have taken a fantasy football like approach in hording RBs this summer.

When teams make their final cuts this weekend

Rams will have 2 new back-ups. Darby,Ogbonnaya and Toston (UFL talents) cut from roster.

I dont think so

Nothing about the jerks running this organization leads me to believe that they will go out and sign anybody or trade for anything. Darby will be the back up once again, and Ogbonnaya and Totson will stay on because they are trying to pass them off as players that they are building but we both know that all three of them are UFL talents. Id be more willing to give Maurice Clarrett or Lawrence Phillips a crack at getting back in the League, rather than continue this sham with these bums we have on the roster, Jk.

Who, huh?

I did not realize we had guys actually “competing” for a serious back-up spot. Rams need some beef and power.

Hot tip for Devaney on a WR

I just watched the Texans try out Dorin Dickerson and another WR I had never heard of and his name is: 15 Williams, Bobby WR 6-4 215 North Alabama 1st . He is a player and he is fast. Dickerson made a one handed grab and ran a reverse but Bobby Williams looked much better. The guy can play!
