Rams make cuts

They're down to 54, which means there's one move left to make...

Players cut:
QB: Brock Berlin
RB: Chris Ogbonnaya, Antonio Pittman
FB: Jerome Johnson
WR: Ronald Curry, Tim Carter, Shawn Walker
TE: Eric Nelson
OT: Phil Trautwein, Renardo Foster
OG: Roy Schuening
C: Tim Mattran
DE: Ian Campbell
DT: Antwan Burton
LB: K.C. Asiodu, Dominic Douglas
S: Todd Johnson, Mark Rubin
CB: Cord Parks

IR: Adam Carriker

I do not believe Carriker costs them a roster spot, but if he does, they actually still have two moves to make.

Quick hits on the cuts:
* At the moment it looks like Nate Jones has beaten out Curry and Carter for WR5. They wouldn't keep just 4 WRs, would they? I like Jones but am surprised he beat out Curry.
* 5 others I thought would be cut by now: T Eric Young, G Roger Allen, DE Eric Moore, LB Quinton Culberson, S David Roach. Roach is the big surprise to me of that group, but Todd Johnson wasn't setting the world on fire, either.
* Interesting roster balance at the moment: 10 offensive linemen, 6 defensive ends, 7 linebackers, just 4 running backs.
* Certainly there are still some moves on the way besides the solitary remaining cut.
