32 Teams in 32 Days (Halfway there!): St Louis Rams Empty 32 Teams in 32 Days (Halfway there!): St Louis Rams

Record: 7-8-1
Offensive Rank: 23rd (Passing: 18th, Rushing: 19th)
Defensive Rank: 14th (Passing: 15th, Rushing: 14th)

What went right?

Daryl Richardson was a nice find to play RB, Amendola continued to build a reputation as a good slot guy when healthy. Givens flashed some big play potential. Defensively the new CB duo of Finnegan and Jenkins turned in nice debut seasons.

What went badly?
Front 7 didn't get much traction. Protection was shoddy for Bradford and without Amendola there wasn't much help for him.

Prospects for 2013?
The Rams play in a tough division, but they are trending upwards. Ultimately they go as far as Bradford takes them, and they need to surround him with talent to do so, something they've done a poor job of so far.

Projected 2013 Draft Pick?
The Rams need to do 2 things this offseason, give Bradford more weapons, and keep him upright. Nobody in the weapon category should go here, but Jonathon Cooper gives them excellent value to play interior OL.

Rams went undefeated in the division didn't they? Tough solid defence, Janoris Jenkins is proving the potential he has, just needs to keep his head screwed on.

Desperate need of somebody bar Amendola. Kendricks ain't a bad receiving TE

If Rams keep Amendola don't think they'll be going WR in the draft but could go TE (which it's too early for here) so good pick, though they do have a second pick...

They do, but that pick will end up in the Redskins summation to keep the draft in order

I feel this is a big draft for the Rams. They really need to capitalize on the trade with the Redskins last year.

The NFC West looks real tough though with the 49ers & Seahawks plus the Cardinals could improve quickly.

Agree with that Mikey
The West has gone from the worst in NFL to looking one of the toughest in a couple of seasons

So true. One of the NFL's successes is how quickly teams/Divs can turn around, i guess at the expense of dyansty's...

Broad dynasties still exist... you can bet certain teams will be there or there abouts for long periods (currently New England, Baltimore, Steelers - though the latter is declining) but fortunately they only monopolize the playoff spots not always the Lombardi
