By Matt Miller, NFL Draft Lead Writer Jun 20, 2014
Starters: Jake Long, Greg Robinson (rookie), Scott Wells, Rodger Saffold, Joe Barksdale
Key Reserves: Davin Joseph, Brandon Washington, Mike Person
The St. Louis Rams made aggressive moves in the 2014 offseason to secure the present and the future of the offensive line. You can bet on an immediate payoff along the front five.
Left tackle Jake Long is a prototypical star at the position, but he's coming off an injury. Still, when healthy, he's shown to be a top-five left tackle. To protect against his current and future injuries, the team used the No. 2 overall pick on stud tackle Greg Robinson. He'll start the year at guard, but he's a future tackle and a dang good one at that.
The center position is locked down by Scott Wells, and he has two familiar faces to his right. Rodger Saffold is a very good right guard, and Joe Barksdale was a surprising performer at right tackle last fall. If they're both healthy, this is a sneaky good right side.
Where do you think Bleacher Reports has the Rams? Go look!
