Where did you hear that?
Martz said it was tough decision predicated by injury at the LB position. I can't believe the defensive scheme is that complicated. The offense, yes, but the defense? I don't know, the Rams could have easily given up on Butler just a few short years ago. Tough deal any way you look at it, but many early indications pointed to Shivers being a good draft pick. I guess if he truly had a bad attitude then it is a good move, but if he was simply a bit of a project then I question the move since he is only a rookie who came out of college early. How many other projects have we carried, in the past, or how many are currently on the roster and/or the practice squad?
