Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch is reporting that even though the Rams have not made a firm decision on who they'll select with their first pick of the 2008 NFL Draft, Glenn Dorsey, DT from LSU, is the likely choice. If the Rams were to select Dorsey, that would leave only the Falcons in the way of Chris Long coming to Oakland with the fourth pick of the draft.

That increases the likelihood that DT Glenn Dorsey will be available at #3 for the Atlanta Falcons, which in turn increases the likelihood that Matt Ryan will not be headed to the Dirty Dirty. The Kansas City Chiefs (#5) also may want a QB, but the situation is less dire than it is in Atlanta.
