The Rams cut a tight end...

and he's NOT Joe Klopfenstein! They just announced that they've cut Anthony Becht. A justifiable move; Becht wasn't an offensive threat and wasn't the impact blocker the Linehan brain trust thought they got when they originally acquired him.

Given that this offense is going to need productivity out of the TE position, I can't see the Rams going into the season with just McMichael, Daniel Fells and Klop on the roster. It's the quality of the TEs, not the quantity. It doesn't make any sense not to try to upgrade on Klop. It'll be interesting to see if they have any interest in L.J. Smith, the former TE at Philly under Shurmur. He's still unsigned.
