Jason Smith Should Be At LT

The Rams selected tackle Jason Smith number 2 overall in the 2009 NFL draft to be their left tackle of the future for the next 10-12 years.  But, Jason Smith has started this season on the right side before getting hurt and has bizarrely been in a 3 tackle rotation with Adam Goldberg and Alex [...]
