Is... is Dan Pompei the new Rams beat writer?!?
Sorry, but I gotta bitch again. I can’t stand hitting the link for articleswhere the first thing they do is ask you for more money to read shit that everybody else gives you for free. I had to get that off my chest.
It’s like going to Subway and being asked to give a tip to somebody who merely made a sandwich for me.

Best drafting franchise in the NFL! Rams gave up too much for Fiske blah blah blah.......... They actually stole him!

I remember so many saying what a mistake it was to trade up for Fiske. Well, it all worked out. He's well worth the trade up on its own merit. But they got that second round pick back with the Falcons trade. A higher one than it would have been. Sure, we gave up our first but all we did was defer it to next year. So in the end, the net worth was a very good defensive tackle and a higher second round pick. We would have been in upper 50's with our own pick. Not to mention the Falcons first will be higher than our own. Les can sure work his magic.

Yeah, I figured $2 a week is less than a Sunday paper. It's an up and coming source for sports news. Great value and hell, they recognized JR for her coverage of the Rams so, why not? I'm a team player.:laugh2:

Besides, it was the only way to read the article and what an article it was! How long can we keep those two together? Long, I hope!

The off-season work:

Verse:
Verse estimates he used a power rush 90 percent of the time as a rookie. He beat Dolphins left tackle Terron Armstead with a power move, and Armstead later said Verse was one of the players who led him to retire.

In the offseason, however, Verse has developed his speed rush as a complement. “That will give tackles something to be scared of,” he says.

Fiske:
Fiske, meanwhile, focused on identifying his own tendencies in the run game. He also recommitted to being the best he can physically, stretching more and improving his diet. He weighs 293 pounds — up eight pounds — and says his body fat is lower. A tear in his patellar tendon required arthroscopic surgery, but he returned to practice in the spring.
