Rams Sign Steve Smith

By James Bryer

After sitting behind four Philadelphia Eagle wide receivers on the depth chart last year, Steve Smith is on the move again. Once a dominate force in the New York Giants offense, Smith’s one year stint as an Eagle, was dubbed a complete failure.

The Rams continue to try and find QB Sam Bradford a solid core of targets.

Smith played in only 11 games for the Eagles last year, catching 11 passes for 124 yards and one touchdown.

The Rams are willing to take a chance on Smith, who played four years with the Giants offense before signing with Phily last year.

Fantasy Factor: At the moment, it’s too difficult to predict the depth chart of the St.Louis Rams. With the 6th overall pick in Aprils NFL Draft, the Rams are in a prime position to select Justin Blackmon from Oklahoma State. If they do add rookie talent from draft, a player like Steve Smiths chances of seeing daylight drastically decrease.
