Here’s some news and links about the coaching search and some things to think about.
First, do not be suprised if the Rams are slow in submitting requests for interviews for defensive coordinators Rex Ryan, Jim Schwartz and others. Billy Devaney interviewed Ryan, Schwartz, Leslie Frazier (Minnesota DC) and Winston Moss in Atlanta last year and [...]
Here’s the Rams shopping list for the offseason to retool their roster for 2009.
