Sell the Rams' Passing Attack

This statement would be true even if Sam Bradford was playing this year. The Rams offense doesn’t lead to fantasy production from wide receivers, and there’s not a whole lot of reason to think this year will be any different.

Kenny Britt and Brian Quick are both decent fliers in fantasy leagues, but the last time St. Louis had an 800-yard receiver was when Torry Holt was in the league. Because it was done by Torry Holt, all the way back in 2007.

Shaun Hill is an underrated backup, but don’t think St. Louis is going to be a pass-heavy team with him under center. Through Week 7 last year, the seven games Bradford played, the Rams were actually the ninth-ranked team in pass-to-run ratio. At the end of the season, St. Louis ranked 24th.

The team isn’t going to trust Hill to throw 35 or 40 time per game, which means the pass-catchers will suffer. Zac Stacy is the guy to own in this offense, not someone like Kenny Britt.
