With the 78th overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft, the St. Louis Rams select Boise St. WR Austin Pettis. A strong, dependable receiver who's been very productive on the college level, Pettis is tough, goes over the middle and extends to make the reception away from his frame. He takes a pounding and makes the tough catch in a crowd, holding onto passes. He uses his frame to shield away opponents. Pettis has been a consistent force in the Boise State offense and is a sure-handed receiver who always comes away with the reception. He has the ability to produce on special teams, which adds to his value. Source: Sports Illustrated
But again, he probably would have been around in the 4th. He will add needed size to the position, but we've got too many #2/#3's on our roster already, it's a crowded shuffle of the average. After such a good first day, the second day has been a flop.
Yeah I agree with them having a plethora of 2s and 3s. I sad that in another thread. If they could pull of a deal for someone like Vincent Jackson, they'd be set for a long time...
