The 2012 NFL offseason is winding down for the St. Louis Rams. The club has signed most, if not all, of its free agent targets, and the draft is now little more than a memory. With the Rams roster settling down, I think it's safe to say that the team has drastically improved from 2011.  

The Rams entered the offseason with a pressing need at wide receiver. When the dust settled during the priority phase of free agency, quarterback Sam Bradford still didn't have a No. 1 receiver and the team's top target in 2011, Brandon Lloyd, had signed with the Patriots.

After trading down twice, the St. Louis Rams finally took a player. They used the 13th pick to take Michael Brockers, a defensive tackle from LSU. Here's what our reports had to say about the latest Ram: The buzzword for Brockers is "upside."  Cox is more polished. Dontari Poe is stronger. Brandon Thompson is better at his specific task in the middle. Brockers is more of a natural athlete than any of them. The Cowboys love to develop...

48: New England Patriots -- Tavon Wilson, DB, Illinois -- Nobody likes versatile defenders more than Bill Belichick, but this is an overdraft in the minds of some.

But most draftniks had Wilson with a sixth-to-seventh-round grade, if a draftable grade at all. 49: San Diego Chargers...  

The San Francisco 49ers were an overtime away from representing the NFC in Super Bowl XLVI. They should have a harder time replicating that success following the adjustments that their divisional rivals have made to their rosters this offseason. The Seattle Seahawks have a new quarterback in Matt Flynn while the St. Louis Rams will have a new coaching staff that's led by Jeff Fisher. The Arizona Cardinals were an up-and-coming team who rallied...
