Hi all, I love the debates on who's going to be making the team, who's going to be our starting line etc, but does anyone out there have any tangible updates on Sam?

Hopefully @CoachO can clear this up, but at the pre-draft event Snead said that Sam was running and throwing. Which is a really good sign.
I think Softli said Sam will get the majority of reps in OTAs.Reports continue to come in from T. Softli and others, than Bradford is progressing quite well in his rehab. He is throwing, running, working on his drops, rollouts, etc.
While I suspect they will not push him to quick, there has been talk that he will participate in OTAs on a limited basis. And since the first full squad OTS is scheduled to stat tomorrow, I would imagine we will hear something concrete soon.

So now that begs the question. Where does Jake Long stand?
Probably on the sidelines to start camp.
When SB was drafted looked like a fresh faced kid, now he looks the part of a confident man, ala KWSam Bradford will be ready for OTAs, Jake Long won’t

When the Rams begin the on-field portion of their OTAs next week, they’re going to have one of their offseason’s biggest question marks on the field, but not the other.
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, quarterback Sam Bradford will be ready to return, but left tackle Jake Long will not.
Both are coming off knee surgery, and both are expected to be there for the start of the regular season.
Bradford’s torn ACL came in late October, while Long’s was in December, making his delayed timetable reasonable.
The Rams used the second pick in the NFL Draft on Auburn tackle Greg Robinson, which indicates they were thinking about life after Long anyway.
But Bradford’s return is worth watching, as they try to figure out what to do with him in the future. They’ve committed to him as a starter, and didn’t draft someone to push him, so now the only question is what to do about his contract.
So now that begs the question. Where does Jake Long stand?
