I did some looking around this morning and this is exactly the list I came up with too. First option is Westbrooks of course (who a tually played 60+ more snaps than Easley last year). Next are stepping up Longacre and Fox's workload. Third is considering signing Odrick or Walker.
On the roster now.
67 Bryant, Omarius DT 6-3 315 22 R Western Kentucky
66 Jefferson, A.J. DT 6-3 280 24 R Mississippi State
71 Purcell, Mike DT 6-3 328 26 3 Wyoming
70 Sayles, Casey DT 6-3 289 21 R Ohio
92 Smart, Tanzel DT 6-1 290 22 R Tulane
62 Trinca-Pasat, Louis DT 6-1 300 25 1 Iowa
Plus a new DE, who is just worth mentioning at this point:
Lyons, Caushaud DE 6-5 284 24 1 Tusculum (was on Steeler's practice squad last 2 years)
After Westbrooks, Easley, Brockers, and Donald, Rams had 9 other linemen on the roster.
I think they anticipated the possibility that Easley would go down again, given his history.
