St. Louis Rams: What to do with Pick No. 2?
The Indianapolis Colts' first overall selection in the 2012 NFL Draft should come as no surprise, but the debate of which position the St. Louis Rams should address rages on.
The Rams, now under the guidance of head coach Jeff Fisher, have many holes to fill, and several players should come into consideration for them. However, I think the case can be made for one player above all: Oklahoma State wideout Justin Blackmon. Tap your mouse here for more »
