St. Louis Rams 2015 Draft Preview

Apr 23, 2015 - 6:22 PM (SportsNetwork.com) - St. Louis could go in a number of different directions with the 10th overall pick. The Rams need help opposite Greg Robinson at tackle while receiver could be the secondary option based on need. The team also wants to add help at quarterback despite acquiring Nick Foles.

Reaching for a tackle like Andrus Peat or Ereck Flowers in the top 10 doesn't make a lot of sense nor does mortgaging the future to move up to get Marcus Mariota. A pass-catcher like Louisville's DeVante Parker, who brings a big body to the dance, along with soft hands, very good body control and the leaping ability to high-point the football, could be the most sensible option.

In the second round keep an eye on signal callers like UCLA's Brett Hundley, Colorado State's Garrett Grayson and Baylor's Bryce Petty, who all had private workouts with the Rams.
