For fantasy purposes I hope he gets traded.

ESPN: Rams not shopping Steven Jackson

http://espn.go.com/n...eff-fisher-says

Of course, this could be a nice way of trying to increase his value.

The Rams need quantity at this point. A running back is often, a short term dividend. If someone dropped a handful of picks on them, Jackson will quickly become available.

CBS Sports; Rams will give you $100,000 if you guess their entire 2014 schedule

 

To 'accurately predict' the entire Rams schedule, all you have to do is pick who the Rams will play, where they'll play them and on what day. Then do that 16 times. Plus you'll need to predict when the team's bye week is. So that's easy. Except it's not.

It be tough enough if you just had to predict the 17 weeks (including the bye) without potential non-Sunday games. Throw in the predicting which Thursday game they'll be on and a potential MNF, it's pretty difficult.

Greg Robinson to help the OL, Aaron Donald to help the DL.  This is a team that is coming.

ESPN: Rams' dome running out of money

 

The publicly-funded Edward Jones Dome anticipates needing an extra $40 million to cover maintenance over the next 15 years, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported Wednesday. The St. Louis Regional Convention and Sports Complex Authority, which owns the downtown dome, expects to exhaust its $16 million in savings in six years.

 

To help entice the Rams to stay, the St. Louis Convention & Visitors Commission, which manages the dome, in 2012 offered a $124 million improvement plan that included a bigger scoreboard and better club seating, with the Rams paying slightly more half those costs.

 

The team countered with a far more ambitious proposal that called for a new roof with a sliding panel and a bevy of improvements that would keep the city convention center in the dome closed for three years. The team didn't put a price tag on its request, but city officials estimated the upgrades would cost $700 million.

Rams will have trouble getting past San Fran, or Seattle; but I'm convinced there are not 19 teams better than St. Louis.
