St. Louis Rams Sign LB Bryan Kehl

The St. Louis Rams have signed LB Bryan Kehl off waivers shortly after Josh Hull was placed on IR due to his ACL injury. New York Giants fans claim Kehl whiffing on a block that allowed a punt to be blocked Sunday against the Carolina Panthers could be the reason he was waived this week. Kehl had 43 tackles over the past two years mainly as a special teams player on the Giants. The Rams will most likely use Kehl to replace Chris Chamberlain on special teams. The Rams are still in trouble at the linebacker position if any of the Ohio State trio fall. I trust that the Rams are actually looking at the other 31 rosters in the NFL for players but the fact that they continue to pick up ex-New York Giants makes you wonder.

LB Josh Hull Out With Torn ACL

Well it seems like if the St. Louis Rams did not have bad luck they would not have any luck at all. After losing several players to injury on Sunday the Rams have now lost LB Josh Hull who tore his ACL in practice today. Hull has been placed on IR and will be lost for the season. With Chris Chamberlain fracturing a toe against the Arizona Cardinals the Rams are now down to four healthy linebackers James Laurinaitis, Na'il Diggs, Larry Grant, and David Vobora for the game against the Oakland Raiders on Sunday. As I continually state the lack of depth on the St. Louis Rams will play a major role in their 2010 season and early injuries certainly will not help.

St. Louis Rams Select Josh Hull, LB PSU

Josh Hull seems like the type of late round player coach Steve Spagnuolo and GM Billy Devaney like to select. Hull is a small (235lb) LB that is just a football player. His measurable are not great but he is a football player. Hull played four years at Penn State and had 116 tackles in 2009. Hull is another player that could add depth to our thin linebacker core and special teams. Hull reminds me a lot of David Vobora and Chris Chamberlain two other late round picks of the St. Louis Rams.
