In case you didn't notice, the point of this exercise is to demonstrate what tough choices the Rams may face.

I think a lot will go with the combination of Ryan Pickett and Steve Hutchinson.

Packaging three players, though, like Pickett, Lance Schulters and Jeff Bachus is tempting, however.

My choice: Pickett and Nate Clements $21.50). I think keeping Ryan is cruicial, and a guy like Clements would give the Rams the ability to focus on the LB and S positions in the draft. Plus, that combination (under my hypothetical) leaves some left over money for later.

Hartwig, Schulters, Barnard...and I wouldn't blink an eye.

i would have to go with azumah,darren howard , and pickett... then focus the draft on linebackers/safeties.... atogwe showed me something those last 2 games.... with carter getting a lot of time last year i trully believe he could be destined for a monster year... have atogwe, huff, and carter back there.. then with little, howard, and hargrove thats some pass rush we havent had in a while....

I go with Pickett and Hope leaving a whopping $5.50 for other needs. Hope is the best safety in the FA market, we keep the best DT in the market, and hopefully our young OL will come together to fill the interior gaps.
