Harnish gets my vote. I liked him in college and would have liked if the Rams had drafted him to develop.

I just wonder if any rookie can pick up Schotts system quickly. That is the trouble with being too complex.

Plus the Rams should be very familiar with him, since hey said they saw a lot of Cunningham. They apparently looked at Northern Illinois more than once.

As long as it's not Mark Sanchez, I think most people can learn it.
