| Philadelphia, PA (Best E Casino) - If the St. Louis Rams ever want to see what they passed up in the 2008 NFL Draft, they can drive across the Show-Me State to Kansas City. The Rams' choice with the No. 2 pick in the 2008 NFL Draft presumably came down to Chris Long, a versatile defensive end-type who would fill an immediate team need, and Glenn Dorsey, a space-eating defensive tackle rated higher overall by many services. St. Louis went for the need and drafted Long, precipitating Dorsey's short fall to Ka |
