Your #1 Overall Draft Pick


Football logic would dictate the St. Louis Rams take defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh with the first overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft. They have invested quite a bit in the defensive line the past few years with first rounders DT Adam Carriker and DE Chris Long, and adding Suh to the mix should aid in the development of all three men. However...St. Louis is also in desperate need of a quarterback and a "face of the franchise." Rumors continue to swirl about a trade for Michael Vick, but seriously, would any team looking for a new "face" want it to be Vick? Enter Oklahoma QB Sam Bradford. The Rams have been in constant contact with Bradford's agent regarding the rehab of his injured shoulder. Bradford weighed in at the scouting combine at 236 lbs, 13 pounds heavier than his playing weight of 223. This is in response to critics saying he needs to bulk up his 6'4" frame. If Bradford has a solid pro day on March 25, we're going on an early limb to say Bradford will indeed be the Rams new "face of the franchise."
