St. Louis Rams Sign CB Rod Hood

Well it appears the St. Louis Rams at least noticed that rookie WR Torrey Smith, who didn’t have an NFL catch prior to Sunday torched Justin King for three touchdown catches because they signed veteran CB Rod Hood on Tuesday. Hood has prior experience with the Philadelphia Eagles, Arizona Cardinals, Cleveland Browns, Chicago Bears, and Tennessee Titans.

For a team that currently has Justin King, Bradley Fletcher, Al Harris & Josh Gordy as their four cornerbacks I am glad the Rams picked up someone. Hood has played in 93 NFL games and two Super Bowls with the Eagles and Cardinals. Hood is 5-11, 200 pounds and has good speed. The Rams will most likely press him into action on Sunday against the Washington Redskins. The Rams created a roster opening by releasing 2011 5th round draft pick safety Jermale Hines. Another wasted pick if you are keeping count.
