Rams continue to slide in offseason power rankings, drop to 11thWhile several teams made big moves this offseason, the Los Angeles Rams were not necessarily one of them.

Free agency was unkind to them in the trenches, and it remains to be seen if RB Todd Gurley’s knee is going to flare once season starts. Don’t expect another 6-0 run through NFC West, either.Go to Full Article--
