Alabama RB Mark Ingram has been a polarizing figure among Rams fans. Julio Jones isn’t the only former Crimson Tide player in contention to be selected by the St. Louis Rams at 14. Many local and national media types have at least broached the subject of the Rams interest in the Alabama running back, including […]

We assembled a crack team for the Rams war room in Mock Three, spanning three Rams blogs and four reasonably sound minds, and spent a good chunk of Friday building our draft board. Now that our pick is in, I don’t mind sharing our board with you: Option 1: Julio Jones … taken by the […]

Albert Einstein was once quoted as saying “insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results.” Einstein’s words have echoed loud and clear over the last decade of Rams drafts, especially in […]

The Bloguin Mock Draft steamrolls on, with the Minnesota Vikings stopping the free-fall of DE Da’Quan Bowers, and the Detroit Lions finally deciding to keep their franchise QB upright by selecting OT Anthony Costanzo.
