The Rams can go in many directions with this
pick. The Rams lost Kevin Curtis this off-season and may draft a receiver.
They have to find a pass rusher to pair with Leonard Little. And they need
help in the secondary, at linebacker and defensive tackle. Adding a
potentially dominant pass rusher will help all aspects of the Rams defense
and Jamaal Anderson has great
upside.

With Patrick Willis off the board, the Panthers
will look to upgrade another area of need – tight end. Carolina hasn’t had an effective tight end
since Wesley Walls, and adding a player that can take pressure off the
receivers is a must. Miami’s
Greg Olsen gives the Panthers a
fast, play making tight end.

There are plenty of quality players on the
board for the Steelers. Pittsburgh
can address their secondary with the selection of Darrelle Revis. They can
add an outside linebacker like Paul Posluszny or Lawrence Timmons. With local
product Revis on the board, the
Steelers instantly upgrade their secondary and special teams.

The Packers are in an interesting situation.
Brett Favre announced he will return this season. Ahman Green signed with the
Houston Texans, and the secondary needs help at safety. Florida’s
Reggie Nelson is available and he’s a tempting choice for the Packers, but
with the need for a starting running back, Cal’s Marshawn Lynch is the easy
selection.
