Ask the Expert: The Los Angeles Rams. Has a nice ring to it. But it might not sound quite as appealing to Roger Goodell. Sure, getting a team in Los Angeles has been one of his primary focuses. In fact, Goodell was charged with the L.A. situation for years before he even was commissioner of the NFL.

By Rams Insider Rams Coach Steve Spagnuolo wouldn't comment on the Rams being for sale, but he did talk about his expectations for this week's mini-camp, on if the playbook will be installed before training camp, on how the mental part is now hooking up with the physical, on player injuries, and on what he...

By VanRam The non-top OTs are getting lots of talk lately. The PD article linked above has one NFL o-line coach gushing about Eben Britton. And here's some re-evaluation of UConn's William Beatty.

By VanRam The NFC North is only a slightly better matchup. Obviously, Chicago has made some big improvements during the offseason, but will Pace be healthy when the Rams face the Bears in week 13? The Rams offensive line will get a big test against the Vikings, who had a top five defense against both th...

By VanRam Whether they draft Curry or not, I think the Rams still need to pick up a LB on the second day, preferably a true-blue MLB.

By VanRam Chicago media is already arranging Pace's marriage to the Bears, also a potential destination for the soon-to-be released Torry Holt. I always thought that Jim Haslett came out of the Rams experience looking much better than Scott Linehan. But who works in the NFL now and who works in th...

By VanRam This comes as no surprise, except for the idea that the Rams might have traded him. The Rams are getting younger across the board, and rebuilding the offensive line for the future is now the priority. Pace's release also ups the likelihood the Rams will take an OT in the NFL Draft next month, li...

By VanRam Avery and Isaac Bruce have more than just speed in common. Check out who Avery compared himself to in a pre-draft chat with fans at ESPN: I would have to say Isaac Bruce, Marvin Harrison. Those guys. They have the dedication and the desire to be the best. That's the kind of dedication that I have.

By VanRam The Rams lacked speed at WR; now, they have a proven speed threat with goods hands and a great opportunity to develop. And let's face it, there's no team I trust more with wide receivers than the Rams...well, more specifically the Al Saunders Rams. Sorry Linehan, this picks works much better wit...

By VanRam Drew Bennett turned into the pricey free agent pick up that everyone forgot about. Bennett had his worst season since his rookie year in 2001. Injuries and the team's offensive woes hobbled his first season in St. Louis; he had just 33 receptions, 375 yards and 3 TDs.

By VanRam Things are relatively settled at QB for the Rams. We've got our starter in Marc Bulger, a starter the team's invested in quite heavily. If the o-line isn't fixed and a blocking fullback isn't added, Bulger's a lost investment...any QB would be. The issue for the Rams at QB is the backup.
