Free agency: What's next for the Rams?

in 2011 NFL Free Agents

Compressed into a week, NFL free agency has provided the kind of offseason theater that used to belong only to the NFL Draft. It's been a busy for the St. Louis Rams and the rest of the NFL, as the bags under my eyes will attest. Free agent and trade rumors won't slow down today. Plenty of teams and players still seek the perfect match, be it money, the chance to win a championship or play for a beloved mentor. The St. Louis Rams have a few cards left to play too. Let's take a look at what we else we might expect from the Rams.
Backup running back
Obviously, this is the biggest move left for GM Billy Devaney. Only the question of who and when remain. Jason Snelling might be the most coveted prize, for the Rams at any rate. He's said to be deciding between the Rams and the Atlanta Falcons. Michael Turner seems to be closer to handing things over to a successor than Steven Jackson, but Jackson's future with Rams beyond 2011 is unclear. The Rams, we hear, are getting a little impatient with Snelling's vacillation.
Ronnie Brown entered the conversation, again, last night. So did Jerious Norwood, who would be less a backup and more of a specialist; however, he could take a 5-8 carries from Jackson, if healthy. Brown, Norwood and Snelling represent just a few of the options out there. Jerome Harrison, late of the Eagles, was on the Rams interest list, and we have heard nothing about him for a few days...hmm.
Don't be surprised if the Rams bring in more than one running back.
Taking care of your own
A deal with Mark Clayton once seemed like a foregone conclusion. Then, head coach Steve Spagnuolo revealed his knee wasn't in a state the Rams were comfortable with yet. With Mike Sims-Walker on board now, Clayton might have to look at his other options.
Bringing back Adam Goldberg as a backup offensive lineman is also on the priority list. After signing Harvey Dahl and restructuring Jacob Bell's contract, the Rams have their starting guards, but would love to have some insurance for the offensive line.
Gary Gibson was once a near lock to return. After the Rams signed free agent DT Justin Bannan, that seems unlikely. It's probably just Darell Scott and Jermelle Cudjo in the DT rotation behind Bannan and Fred Robbins.
Haven't heard much talk about Laurent Robinson, have you? A free agent, Robinson will probably catch on as teams look to round out their depth charts, looking for a player and hoping to catch lightening in a bottle.
Saying goodbye
So far, LB Larry Grant is the only player from last year's roster the Rams have released. He won't be the last.
Horse trading
Last night, Billy Devaney shipped OG John Greco to the Browns for friendly wave, and maybe a seventh-round pick, if Greco starts. Every year of his tenure as the Rams general manager, Devaney has managed to move a couple guys for late round picks. Don't be surprised if the Rams make another trade between now and the mid-point of the preseason. With their group of wide receivers, and some of them showing out well in camp, a couple of them could easily fetch a late-round pick from teams looking to round out their depth charts with a young player capable of breaking out this season. That's how the Rams acquired Brandon Gibson.
Linebackers
Brady Poppinga lands in St. Louis today for a free tour of the Russell Training Center, as well as free medical examination (no small value in today's health care system). Even if Poppinga fails to sign a contract with the Rams by the end of the day, it seems obvious the Rams will find another linebacker to bring in via free agency.
Hang onto your hats, because it figures to be another busy day.

Vacillation? How dare you try to expand peoples vocabulary.
Also here’s hoping for Snelling.

Hey, Van
Will James Butler be a Ram next season? I’m shocked his pink slip hasn’t been delivered yet.
He restructured his deal

Teams should only look at Robinson if they want to drop lightning in a bottle.
Please tip your waitresses.
Cool! Wisdom Sunday!

Strange, can’t imagine the rams will hear good things about that from all their connections in the Eagles front office

he walked out?
I had heard they cut him because they had about 4 runningbacks within his exact skillset. What did you hear with him walking out?

why wont we go after ahmad bradshaw? is he pricing his self out?
by kevio3000 on Jul 31, 2011 12:10 PM CDT via mobile reply actions
I don't see the Giants letting him go
They obviously have lost faith in Jacobs. I’d like to see us sign someone soon, though!
Plus, the Redskins are apparently interested in him now, so unless we’ve got 200 million to give him, he’ll remain in the NFC East
He'd
be the most expensive backup running back in the league. Hellz no on Bradshaw.

rams facebooked it as well….. I would LOVE for them to bring him in as a wide reciever coach on a permanent basis.
Looks like the Cards just got a little better at TE
…scooped up Todd Heap from the Ravens. Too bad they don’t have 18 TE’s like us
This year with McDaniels we're going to go with a revolutionary 11 TE system.
I don’t even know why they wasted so much money on Bradford. I say they trade Bradford and Jackson for Heap.

I like to think of Jeff Teague as our secret weapon..... so secret that the Atlanta coaches have no idea who he is.

the awful series of plays
the Pat Shurmur called an offense last season

Aren’t you going to miss watching plays your 5 year old child can predict?
Well
She’s 3, but she could have still called a better game last year. I almost called the Rams FO to get my dog hired calling the plays. I’m so ready for a real OC.
THIS year's the year. I hope....
LMAO
well if reports from camp are correct, there is now a real OC in the house. I read an article and the reporter said it was a night a day difference in process at camp. The said you would have barely known Shurmur was there whereas McD was shouting and clapping and getting right in there with the drills……. sounds like music to my ears.

Diggs and Vobora had about the same stats last year. Pretty bad. Bobby Carpenter, who we cut, out did both.
Conisdering Diggs performance, age and questionable recovery, I’d say he’s “Chopped.”
Diggs
got hurt, and brought more intangibles than any of our linebackers.

It's been 9 months or so
That’s not even close to being in the glue factory territory given that it’s a knee injury.
Not afraid to nitpick
He has the best hands of our receivers.
Quit remember only the Seattle game, before that he caught anything in his area. He had a bad game, Fitz has some too.

We need that quality RB now.
I am so pleased and thankful that we’re not fielding the crap players on offense that we did just one season removed. Recall that 2009 squad led by Marc “the statue” Bulger who was protected by Richie “headcase” Incognito, Jinx Barron, & Setts, with TE extraordinaire “Stone hands” McMichael and WR Keenum Burton, and whenever SJax wasn’t in the backfield it was some clown like Karney, Obog, Gado, or Darby. Talk about a crew that couldn’t score on a UFL team… yecch!
good call
the overhaul was way overdue, speaking of setterstrom, i remember reading he was leaning towards retirement

He’ll have to work harder than he ever has and then some to become a good number 1. He brings a really good skill set to the corp though.

2009
was a great year for him, coach said he was a future all-pro. Poor season last year in coverage but has already shown the ability to be a complete ‘backer from ’09. If he bounces back from last year, he’s a huge steal and a lock for a long-term deal. If not, no biggie, no risk.

The texans pass defense was AWFUL last year
And be does struggle in coverage, so they might just be fed up with him for that, but I would think Spags has a plan to deal with that, cause he can tackle like a motha flicker

Looking at Battle Red Blog Diles is a joke.

forget moss..but i still like t.o. one year contract and a go to guy just let him know he’s just one wheel in the passing game if he can live with that get him if not forget him ….i think he might retire
I like TO too,
he has a great work ethic despite his drama queen antics. He’s the only vet out of Ochocinco, Plax and Moss I feel would actually help our receiving corp but he’s also the most questionable health-wise. If Clayton isn’t being signed, neither is TO.

I think our O is going to be a force I hope that we will be able to keep MSW Mikell for a longtime if they produce this year. The D is stacked at the line but we need a good up grade at corner lets ashaunte and I think we could really do some damage.

DX and Gibson might be being showcased!
DX and Gibson are getting run in leiu of the youngsters and the vets at training camp. I don’t think either will start the full season. It’s helping the possible injury bug scenario. Expect MSW, Amendola and a healthy and proven DX as the possible starters until either Pettis or Salas steps up. There should be one more WR added to the mix. Somehow it seems like Gibson is being showcased for put up or leave reasons. It looks like Robinson, Clayton and Gibson may be out. One more signing of a FA- WR will solidify that.
Looks like Philly will keep Namhdi and Samuels.
Cromartie is the player they are trying to deal. The Jets better not offer less than Philly needs or they’ll send Cromartie somewhere else. Doesn’t look like the Rams are willing to pay the price tag.
I wont ashante sam he could be a good fit here to.

I agree J-Rad2
I just don’t think Philly will let us have him. He’s under contract and I’d love to send a couple of WR’s and a draft pick for him, but I don’t think they would except that. You’re right though, he’d be perfect for us. Maybe we could work something for Cromartie. : )
