Let's hope Carriker lives up to his number (not 13, but 90).
#90
When I think of that jersey number, I think of one Ram. Larry Brooks.
While Jack Youngblood and Fred Dryer received the headlines, Brooks was the anchor of the Rams' defenses that dominated the NFC West in the 1970s. He was a classic workhorse who gave it all on every down. He took on the blockers, penatrated the line, stopped the run, and allowed the ends to rush the passer.
When Adam Carriker puts on the #90 jersey, I hope someone tells him about Brooks. Carriker can be the same kind of player, and if he can help the team build a defense like they had in the 1970s, look out!
Wear it well, Adam.

God I hope Carriker produces like the rest of you say he's going to I am still not happy with this pick, nor do I think he will come through. I can't believe we didn't get Jenkins.... I'm slightly pissed

Sometimes it's more important than numbers and experience to be a big impact player in the NFL... what is that?
Character and an undying drive to win... and among all the great things I've heard and read about Carriker, he's dripping wet with this.
Hey I just thought of a nic we can use for him... "Carrikter." :l
