The Rams have begun to tweak their roster in the wake of minicamp this past weekend.

Three undrafted rookies have been released: Louisiana-Lafayette defensive end Rodney Hardeway, Virginia Tech wide receiver Josh Hyman and Kansas fullback Brandon McAnderson.

Also, wideout Shaine Smith has been re-signed as a free agent.

Smith, 6 feet 2 and 189 pounds, was in training camp with the Rams last summer as an undrafted rookie out of Hofstra. He caught one pass for 12 yards in the preseason before being cut Aug. 31.

Smith was signed to the New York Jets’ practice squad Dec. 5 and released April 25.

Oh man. This is another good time of year. We need to see who comes out of the other teams. Hopefully we can get a good depth player....

McAnderson is a bit of a surprise based on avenger's view that he had a shot to replace hedgehung on the roster.

Hmmm, he must not have been versatile enough to play TE

(sorry, i know it's getting old, but I had to go there... consider that my last parting shot before i hang the cleats on that issue. But if Linny pulls more idiotic stunts with the TE issue, I reserve the right to resurrect the matter and will likely tender my application to SLOP at that time)
