Likely making my backlog of unposted draft analysis moot, Sam Bradford appears to have all but sealed the deal as the Rams' #1 overall draft pick at his pro day at Oklahoma today. By all accounts, the workout went very, very well for the Sooner slinger.
Here's ESPN's rundown.
Here's the Washington Post's. Note that stltoday, you know, the on-line publication from the town where Bradford's likely to be playing in 6 months, doesn't really have a decent article about it.
Here's the Bleacher Report. Again, far more, and better, work than the main St. Louis on-line media outlet bothered to put in.
And here's Gil Brandt soiling himself. (Also soiling themselves: the Tampa Bay Bucs. They've gone from being willing to trade up for Ndamukong Suh to having him fall in their laps.)
Chris Mortensen's reporting the Rams will still wait until after Bradford's private workout here April 19th before making a final decision. As that would be three days before the draft begins, that idea sounds dubious at best. The Rams better damn sure have whomever they're going to draft locked up in advance, so at a minimum, Billy Devaney and Kevin Demoff had best have some black coffee, Red Bull, 5-Hour Energy, Mountain Dew and No-Doz on hand that week.
And save some joe for Sam. Coffee is for closers.
