Rams appear to be out of the running for Sproles

[Nick]

According to the San Diego Union Tribune...

New Orleans, Philadelphia and, yes, Chargers in running for Sproles. I'm told that's the final 3. Decision soon.

Were gonna take Snelling, who can come in for SJ if he gets injured. The Rams couldnt say that with Sproles?

He doesn't make a whole lot of sense for either of those 3 teams. NO and SD have a bunch of RBs. Philly has Mccoy who is a better Sproles. They need a between the tackles RB.

That sounds like it was based on an earlier report out of Florida. This Tweet out of San Diego is more recent. But we'll see what happens!

no way Sproles could carry the full load. He's never had more than 400 yards or 90 carries in a season. Honestly I'd love to have gotten Devine, Locke or one of the other UFA and Snelling. Giving us both a scatback and a reliable back up.

Right now I don't think we should get too up or too down on these backs. There are literally about 20 good rbs out there so let's just sit and wait. Honestly I'd be happy with Ricky Williams, Jerious Norwood, Jerome Harrison, Darren Sproles, Jerome Harrison, McGahee, Hightower, Kevin Smith, Marion Barber or on and on.

I like what the RAMS are doing so far, i think there after these guys but not willing to over-pay to get them, i'd rather have Snelling / Harrison (probably both those guys together will be cheaper than Sproles.

and pick up a cheap scat back thats only gonna get a few touches a game anyways.

Sproles is a Saint
