Armen Dacity: Bill,

Do you think Justin King might be in the mix as a KR or PR? As I recall, he returned kicks in college, and he certainly has the speed.

Jim Thomas: I haven't seen King used on returns. Today, with Stanley still out, they had five guys returning kicks: Darby, Pittman, Avery, Carter and Byers. They didn't work on punt returns.

paceram: Can you tell me if there were any rookies (Drafted or Free Agent)that stood out or were pleasant surprises at the Rams Mini-Camps? Also, can you tell me how QB Keith Null has looked and do you think he has a chance to win the 3rd String QB position?

Jim Thomas: Of course, Jason Smith and James Laurinaitis have fit in well, as you'd expect as 1st- and 2nd-rounders. CB Bradley Fletcher has impressed with his consistency. WR Brooks Foster is coming along.
Null has a strong arm and looks to have pretty good accuracy. He definitely has a chance to be the No. 3 QB. That's why the Rams drafted him in the 6th rd.

Ruben: Bill,
Thanks for taking my question. Over the last week, there have been many articles in the Dispatch and LA Times on why LA will not be the Rams home in the next few years. Do you believe all the reasons state or genuine and highly unlikely for the Rams to sell and move over the next few years? I still believe the stadium issue really puts ST. Louis in a tough spot to keep them. The economy is bad, but in 2 or 3 years, it will be better and since the Rosenbloom's don't have to sell quickly, all options including LA should be considered?

Jim Thomas: I think the likeliest possibility is that the Rams remain in St. Louis for many years to come. As for LA, yes, I do agree with the reasons mentioned in those stories. Also, you can't overestimate Chip's bitterness toward LA for the way he felt his mother was mistreated there. I think the Rams moving back to LS is the least likely scenario.

Kevin: Do you think Dewayne Robertson would be a good pickup at DT? he's pretty young, meets 4 pillar requirement and prob. would be cheap

Jim Thomas: He might be. However, I think if the Rams were to go after a free-agent DT, they'd rather have a bigger guy.

B-Ball Fan: How does Jackson like the offense so far ? Hope he and the new Full back have hit it off because SJ should buy him some nice gifts if he does his job well this coming year.

Jim Thomas: Jackson and Karney have become good friends. They hang out together quite a bit.
