dominic: Hey Jim:
1)What are your sources telling you about B.J.Raji?
2)Am I wrong,but the impressions Im getting is we can see dt and ot as our first two draft choices.Would B.J. be a reach as the first round pick over Jason Smith?And who do you prefer?
3)Will you follow Bernie to 101 for our beloved Rams updates?Or the answer is....to be continued???

Jim Thomas: 1.) I haven't heard much with regard to the Rams and Raji. And as of right now, I don't think he's scheduled for one of those "Top 30" predraft visits to Rams Park.
2.) We'll see on the DT; I think the Rams could just as easily go with someboyd like Tyson Jackson in Round 2, who is a DE who is big enough to play DT.
3.) Funny you should mention; just this morning I signed with 101 FM.

Steve Roberts: Jim, Tank Johnson isn't the cleanest character nor exactly a pillar like Spags wants but do you think the Rams might consider signing him as a NT within a rotation? He was found innocent of his last arrest in Chicago back in '07 and he's been doing a lot of community service in Florida. He's still only 27 years old so he fits the rest of their signings.

The Rams need a NT and there just aren't many semi-young AND talented unrestricted free agents available. Dewayne Robertson and Kenderick Allen are all I can find remaining to fit the bill after Johnson.

Jim Thomas: I'd kind of doubt it on Tank; Robertson could be intriguing.

Tim: Do you think Aaron Curry will be better than Ray Lewis at his Prime?

Jim Thomas: Geez, that would be saying a lot. Lewis is one of the best MLBs in league history.

Tim: What do you think about Rashad Jennings? I like this guy alot and think the Rams should take him in the 3rd. Spags is trying to establish a power running team and adding him gives them 2 solid power runners and a solid blocking fullback to open up holes.

Jim Thomas: You know, I just don't have a good read or feel for what the Rams are doing for backup running back.

Steve B.: Jim:
If Chris Draft is the new MLB, asssuming the Rams do not acquire a starting LB in the draft, who do you think play the other OLB position with Spoon? Pisa is pretty small for a SAM LB, but Culbertson was a dissapointment there last year. I'm sure they will draft a LB, but if they don't take Curry it isn't clear that guy will start.

Jim Thomas: Obviously there are a lot of variables. But Connor Barwin could be an option in Round 2.
