Bernie: Barring a trade down, Jason Smith is the favorite

[Nick]

From his Post Dispatch forum...

Big J. Smith will be a Ram.

I can't say 100 percent ... but I am pretty certain.

I'm just providing all of the info that I am getting as I check on things with the key people.

I just shot down this crazy-azzz Mark Sanchez-on-a-plane stuff that's put so many of you into convulsions.

Again: Jason Smith.

-B

No doubt their preference is to trade down...and I should have reiterated that.

but if they stay Smith is the prohibitive favorite at this point.

I edited out some sentences that were directed at individual posters and did not contain any news. But that's the gist of it.

If true No Curry but J. Smith will improve the OL. We really cant lose but I really think Curry could have been the best person for this team. I think he can motivate others and lead more then J. Smith. I also think he will become more likely to be a perenial Probowl caliber player where I doubt J. Smith will be. Anyway I trust the FO and if this is their belief then I am all for it. He will definently improve our OL. I hope I am proven wrong through out this year.
