The St. Louis Rams selected LSU defensive tackle Michael Brockers with the 14th overall pick of the 2012 NFL Draft.

Fantasy analysis: Brockers adds some beef to the front four of the Rams and could be an immediate starter. He is very raw and inexperienced, but Brockers' raw skill set puts him ahead of the curve.

The Rams are building a stout defense with a fierce front line, so a surprise performance in fantasy could be in the cards. However, it may be tough to count on them as anything more than an occasional matchup play. Brockers is a low-end flier in leagues with individual defensive players.
