St. Louis Rams Fantasy Football Projections

QB Sam Bradford (St. Louis) Tough to get behind Bradford as anything more than a QB2 because of his lack of offensive supporting cast. He could improve on the 3512 yards, 18 touchdowns, and 15 interceptions he had in 2010, but at the same time, I don’t expect them to pass 590 times again, like they did in 2010. And, of course, he might not last the season behind an offensive line...

Rams’ Sam Bradford is impressed with rookie Chris Givens

Sam Bradford is a very rich man, as the #1 overall pick in 2010, the last year of giant rookie contracts. However, he’s very poor in offensive supporting talent.

Breakout year for Rams’ Robert Quinn?

ST. LOUIS Cortland Finnegan entered the NFL with an attitude, a competitive streak that will help the St. Louis Rams rebuild. His reputation was formed before the trash talk on Sundays.

Kurt Warner: Past NFL greats

As a St. Louis Rams fan I was used to mediocrity in the eighties and nineties. I was used to ending up behind the San Francisco 49ers in the division. The Rams acquisition of free agent, Trent Green, in 1998 changed the fate of the franchise. Incredibly fast receivers combined with a QB that was reported to be top shelf left the Rams confidently marching into the 1999 season....
