The Rams have reached an agreement with their No. 1 pick, RB
Steven Jackson.
I don't have the terms. Sorry.
The deal was finalized amid the festive setting at J. Buck's in Clayton late Saturday. Jackson was there, accompanied by his St. Louis-based agent, Rocky Arceneaux. Rams president and chief contract negotiatior Jay Zygmunt arrived at the restaurant with a big stack of papers, and the group retreated to a private area to review documents before Jackson signed off.
Marshall Faulk was there, which I view as a real positive.
Marshall really looks fit, by the way. He's streamlined to compared to the muscle/heft he toted around last summer in camp.
Jackson is a big dude. Possibly too big? If so, he'll sweat it off in camp.
I can't imagine what it would be like to be a DB and have this train, Jackson, coming around the bend, his headlights locked in on you.
If he's Ricky Williams with a heart, the Rams will have something special.
I don't know if the Rams will formally announce this Sunday, but it is done. All parties seemed happy.
Thought you'd want to know, ASAP.
Cheers,
Bernie
