Looking for diamonds in the rough, I came upon a very good prospect for the Rams to pursue in a trade if they can't sign Brian Westbrook.
Tashard Choice, Dallas Cowboys
Choice is currently stuck behind Felix Jones and Marion Barber on the Cowboy's depth chart. However, in his two years with the Cowboys, he's carried the ball 156 times with a 5.3 ypc average. He also has 36 receptions over the two years.
He's young (25) and has good measurables (5'10, 212; 4.53 in the 40). I'd guess that he's itching to get on a team where he'd be given the ball more, and I think the Rams would be a good fit for him.
As far as compensation, the Cowboys might be interested in Alex Barron, having released Flozell Adams. I'd be reluctant to trade him at this point, though, unless the Rams also sign a veteran OT so they don't have to put all their eggs in Rodger Saffold's rookie basket.
I'd offer a 5th round pick. Maybe even a conditional (depending on production) 4th rounder.
