Round 1: Offensive Tackle Jason Smith - Baylor
The reason that an offensive tackle should be draft on the 1st round because the Rams should protect Marc Bulger at all cost and both Jason Smith or Eugene Monroe are NFL ready with Smith having more upside.
While both Smith and Monroe are elite pass protectors, the former offers more in the run-blocking department.
Why not Aaron Curry? a franchise left tackle holds way more positional value than a linebacker.
Round 2: Middle Linebacker James Laurinaitis - Ohio State
Will Witherspoon will be moving over to weakside linebacker, creating a need for the Rams in the middle. St. Louis could desperately use a dynamic talent like James Laurinaitis as a leader for its abysmal defense.
Round 3: Wide Reciever Hakeem Nicks - North Carolina
What I like about Hakeem Nicks aside from the size and is his route running and a sure catching hands. Speed and quickness are just average but with Rams now using a balanced West Coast type of offense speed is not an issue in my opinion.
