Rams | Little expects to be three-down player Tue Aug 4, 11:45 AM
Steve Korte, of the News-Democrat, reports St. Louis Rams DL Leonard Little believes he can still be an every-down player for the team, as long as he remains healthy. 'I'll always be an every-down player if I am healthy,'' Little said. 'I don't know where people get this thing where I am just a third-down player. I have been playing every down since I have been starting.'
| Footballguys view: With the success Steve Spagnuolo's defense had getting after the passer in New York, and the very cheap price that Little comes with in drafts this year, we think he'd make a fine risk/reward DE3 in sack heavy leagues. |
