The Julio Jones Sweepstakes ended early. The Alabama wide receiver won't be leaping tall corners in a single bound at the Edward Jones Dome. He went No. 6 - to Atlanta, thanks to a massive trade-up by the Falcons. But as the Quarterback Panic of 2011 widened, with Tennessee reaching for Jake Locker at No. 8 and Minnesota really reaching for Christian Ponder at No. 12, the picture suddenly brightened in the Rams' draft room.
As it turned out, the Rams had more choices than could be expected when it came time to make the No. 14 selection in the draft Thursday night. Included in that cluster of potential picks were three prime ones -- Nebraska cornerback Prince Amukamara, Illinois defensive tackle Corey Liuget and North Carolina defensive end Robert Quinn.
