Random Ramsdom, 1/26: Senior Bowl Reviews

The St. Louis Rams had a small contingent in Mobile this week for the Senior Bowl. The first big week of the so-called draft season gives college players a chance to distinguish themselves, putting new names on the map and giving established players a chance to bolster their own draft stock.

The padded portion of practices are over for the week, and we've got a heaping helping of reviews to take a look at this morning. Pour yourself another cup of coffee and dive in because you'll be hearing much more about these names between now and April.
