ST. LOUIS (AP) -The St. Louis Rams filled their greatest need with the second pick of the NFL draft, taking offensive tackle Jason Smith of Baylor on Saturday.
The Rams have many holes to fill, as evidenced by their 5-27 record the last two years. They created the biggest gap on the line when they released seven-time Pro Bowler Orlando Pace.
The Rams passed on other enticing prospects such as Wake Forest linebacker Aaron Curry and Southern California quarterback Mark Sanchez. St. Louis used all 10 of its allotted minutes before taking the 6-foot-5, 310-pound Smith.
