Howard Balzer of the Globe-Democrat has learned there are talks occurring between the Rams and quarterback Marc Bulger's agents to decide his fate sooner rather than later but there is no urgency to make a move prior to March 5th because there are no salary-cap implications to having Bulger on or off the roster. Because no trade can be consummated until March 5th, the Rams would only release him prior to that date if they have exhausted all potential efforts to deal him. Head coach Steve Spagnuolo said Saturday that even though the Rams' offseason program begins March 15th, it's not necessary that a decision on Bulger be made by then. Source: Globe-Democrat
The Rams passed on Matt Ryan two years ago, passed on Mark Sanchez last year. The more I think about it, I think it would be hard for the Rams to pass on a QB in the first round of the draft three years in a row. Bulger has shown he's injury prone. He also turns 33 on April 5th.
