And that guy is Keenan Burton from Kentucky, He is more a wideout than a slot receiver and he will add to the receiver competition at training camp.
That sad-sack needed all the help the Rams could locate. The Rams spent a seventh-round pick to move from the fifth round into the fourth round (128th overall) and take Burton.
The Rams war room was running out of preferred prospects to select. Hence the move up. “There are only a few out there that are real, viable prospects,” personnel czar Billy Devaney said.
“He has really good hands, but can stretch the field as well,” coach Scott Linehan said of Burton. “This kid is a good route runner and he will go over the middle to make the tough catch.
“He played with a lot of true injuries (in 2007) that a lot of guys (wouldn’t have played with).
