August 5, 2014 at 8:53 am #3327RamBillParticipantMorning Ram-blings: Defensive hope
By Nick Wagonerhttp://espn.go.com/blog/st-louis-rams/post/_/id/10186/morning-ram-blings-defensive-hope
EARTH CITY, Mo. — The St. Louis Rams are betting big on their defense to take the next step in 2014, something that has been well known since coach Jeff Fisher made the move to get Gregg Williams as coordinator in the offseason.
Plenty has been written and said about that group already in this camp but let’s add another insightful piece to the list, shall we? Over at Grantland on Monday, Robert Mays delved into the Rams’ great defensive aspirations for the season.
I don’t really need to add much here since I have been and will continue writing and talking about the team’s efforts to build one of the league’s top defenses. But the piece is certainly worth a read to get another perspective on what the Rams are trying to do and how they’re trying to do it.
I.C.Y.M.I.
A roundup of Monday’s Rams stories appearing on ESPN.com. … In the Ram-blings, we began the day with a look at some more national love for rookie defensive tackle Aaron Donald. … This week’s roster projection comes with little in the way of tweaks but some positional battles are trending in the direction of change. … From there, we set up the rest of the week as the Rams head toward their preseason opener. … Next, we delved into the on-going development of Williams’ defense and where it’s headed. … We closed the day with our camp report from the team’s ninth practice.
