#2 2009 NFL Draft: Rams Pick Jason Smith

Matt Stafford went first, as expected. The Rams weren’t exactly happy with that, but they had to have expected it. St. Louis had a number of choic when it came to players, and many even suspected that there would be a trade. Some expected Mark Sanchez, and Eugene Monroe was also likely considered. In the end, they went with left tackle Jason Smith. The Rams need him, and that’s definitely solid pick as second, in my opinion.

#2 2009 Draft Pick – Jason Smith, Tackle, Baylor to the St. Louis Rams
He’s great at what he does, and he really has the potential to be a 10-year starter for the Rams. Of course, it means that they still have a “meh” quarterback. They have a LOT of money invested in Mark Bulger, though – and he’s the happiest guy in the room right now, I guarantee it. Actually, with some strong offensive players protecting him, Bulger might be able to stand out more. And if he doesn’t? The quarterback talent next year will be crazy and the Rams will have a top pick again, so they’ll be able to take someone awesome.
I like Jason Smith to the Rams. How about you?
Here are other draft picks:
1. Matthew Stafford, Quarterback, Georgie to the Detroit Lions
