08:00 AM ET 07.04 | In the market for a backup to Steven Jackson, the Rams may have a new target. You can add Texans RB Steve Slaton, who apparently has been made expendable in Houston considering Arian Foster's emergence, to the free-agent/trade possibilities being rumored to fill a badly needed backup role behind [Jackson]. ... Of all the RB prospects that have popped up on the rumor mill ( Darren Sproles, Reggie Bush, Cadillac Williams, Slaton), team insiders tell us the name continuing to generate the most positive buzz is that of Sproles, who would appear to offer a particularly appealing change of pace to Jackson. "He has the name recognition and added value on special teams," one insider said of Sproles.

Rams can use more weapons... and Sproles is definitely a weapon.

Yep, the name recognition will come in handy - all the defensive backs will know exactly who it was who just ran by them.

OD, yes the Rams can use more weapons and I like the fact that Slaton can catch the ball out of the backfield.

They get young Sam some more playmates and this team is going to be one tough out for a long time.

Sproles needs to get out of San Diego, I think he thought he was going to secure the #1 RB position when LT left. Go somewhere where you get more playing time.

Spammers haven't figured out that the limited audience on holidays cares even less about their crap than the usual crowd.
