The St. Louis Rams are working out numerous players in the next couple of days, and word around the league is that the team is looking at quarterbacks. NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport has all the details.

Aaron Murray in the 4th is what I'm hoping for. Manziel in the first would suck. I think Murray is a perfect fit.

I'd be cool with an extra 2nd or 3rd rounder on Garoppolo or a late rd Fales pick.

I'm fine with Mettenberger in the third or even Derek Carr in the second if he's there. That's only if we trade down from 2 or 13 and pick up an extra pick(s), though.

If teams think the Rams are drafting a QB, that can only help them with trade offers.

Well, duh. They've spent a ton of time on QBs. They're definitely going to draft one somewhere.

I don't like Mettenberger. He's a statue that isn't accurate enough for my taste. No ability to evade pressure, extremely inaccurate when forced to move, can't work within a muddled pocket, and gets rattled when defenses get after him.

There's better value to be had at QB in this draft.

Totally agree on Mettenberger. He is big and has a strong arm, but his WRs had to constantly adjust their route pattern to catch the ball. He was blessed with 2 excellent WRs in Beckham and Landry. Side note if Landry is there in the third and we haven't picked a WR, get him. I don't care about his 40, he got open well at LSU, he can go get the ball, and he doesn't drop many.

I'm a fan of McCarron, but I wouldn't pick him in the second round. Garrett Gilbert has loads of talent, I just can't get over how bad he was at Texas. For me Aaron Murray in the 4th is just a great fit.

Besides drafting one the Rams will shock the world and sign a UDFA QB for a camp arm.
