St. Louis Rams Forum • 2012 NFL Mock Draft: St. Louis Rams

2012-04-16T19:57:15-05:00

With 10 days to go until the 2012 NFL Draft, Kevin Hanson has updated his three-round mock draft.

Here are his picks for the Rams:

1 (6). Justin Blackmon, WR, Oklahoma State: Yes, the Colts won the "Suck for Luck" sweepstakes, but the Rams are certainly winners as well as they added two additional first-round picks (2013 and 2014) and a second-round pick (2012) to move down a few spots. Blackmon, the back-to-back Biletnikoff winner, gives Sam Bradford a potential No. 1 receiver. Over the past two seasons combined, the physical receiver has been highly productive with 232 receptions for 3,304 yards and 38
touchdowns combined.

2 (33). Mike Adams, OT, Ohio State: After giving their franchise quarterback a bonafide weapon in the first round, the Rams give their pass protection a boost with Adams. No team allowed more sacks (55) than the Rams in 2011. While some may question his work ethic, Adams has prototypical size and athleticism.

2 (39). Jerel Worthy, DT, Michigan State: After focusing on offense with their first two picks, the Rams shift their attention to the interior defensive line here. Worthy helped Michigan State hold opponents to 100.5 rushing yards per game (YPG) and 277.4 total YPG, both conference lows. Not only is Worthy a huge value at this spot, he fills a big need.

3 (65). Lamar Miller, RB, Miami (FL): With Miller slipping to this spot in the draft, it would be difficult to imagine the Rams passing on the home-run threat as a compliment to Steven Jackson and eventual long-term replacement. Only three active (as of 2011 season) running backs have more carries than Jackson (2,138): LaDainian Tomlinson, Thomas Jones and Ricky Williams.

Thoughts?

St. Louis Rams Forum • Rams to interview Hue Jackson for Offensive Coordinator

2012-01-17T07:32:24-05:00

The Rams have hired their new head coach in Jeff Fisher and their new defensive coordinator in Gregg Williams, who had the same position in New Orleans last year.

With their offensive coordinator position still vacant, the team will interview Hue Jackson, who was head coach of the Oakland Raiders in 2011.

Jackson was quarterback coach in Baltimore for Joe Flacco's first two seasons before he left for Oakland to become offensive coordinator and then head coach last year.
