Ryan Tucker
Right tackle
ST. LOUIS RAMS


One of St. Louis' few free-agent hits in the offseason came along the offensive line when center Mike Gruttadauria and right tackle Fred Miller bolted for big bucks. The Rams braintrust believes it upgraded the O-line by promoting backups such as Tucker. They might be right about their new right tackle. The 6-foot-5, 305-pounder fared well in the preseason against Tennessee's Jevon Kearse. Can Tucker, who played center in college, consistently keep up with the league's speed rushers? He'll have to if Kurt Warner is to remain healthy.
