Torry Holt blames the offensive line for the Rams' struggles over the first two weeks of the season, according to the Charlotte Observer. Holt said, "Those guys, the offensive line, have to continue to take more pride in what they're doing to keep the quarterback clean. It's going to come down to the guys up front that's protecting Marc and giving Steven Jackson running lanes and giving us time to get open in the secondary."

Torry Holt had just one catch in the Rams' Week 1 loss, but coach Scott Linehan said the team has to find a way to get Holt the ball even when he's double-teamed. "You can't just say, 'Well he's dealt with, he's out of the game,'" Linehan said in the Bellville News-Democrat. "You've got to be creative. I know (offensive coordinator) Al (Saunders) did a great job of making the adjustments necessary to get Torry more involved and all that stuff, but we've got to play better as an offense.

Torry Holt cleared the air about his contract and future on Saturday. "I have this year and next year, and hopefully I can finish those years out," Holt explains to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. "Then, I'll see where I'm at. I'll see where I'm at physically. I'll see where I'm at emotionally, financially. And then, if they would like to do something here, I'll consider it. If not, then I'll have the option to go and explore and give my services somewhere else. So if that happens, Carolina will definitely be the first choice." Holt recently talked about his wishes to play alongside his brother Terrence, who plays for the Panthers. The stud receiver also says that his left knee feels much better this offseason.

Head coach Scott Linehan said that recent trade rumors involving WR Torry Holt — the Eagles and Bengals were mentioned as possible suitors — were nothing but hot air, according to Pro Football Weekly. If anything, with primarily return specialist Dante Hall currently shaping up as the top No. 3 wide receiver candidate behind Holt and Drew Bennett, the Rams need more receivers — a need they are expected to address in the draft as early as the third round.

Torry Holt is not on the trading block, according to The St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Scott Linehan commented that the Rams are not shopping Holt by stating, "There's no interest, no discussions about trading Torry Holt. He's on our team, we want him on our team, and I hope he feels the same way."
March 6, 2008
Torry Holt, who is a seven-time Pro Bowler, has flown under the trade radar, but St. Louis might find their rebuilding efforts easier if they were to move the star receiver, according to the Delaware News-Journal. Holt, 31, is slated to make $5.65 in base salary in 2008 and $6.65 next in 2009, excluding bonuses. His agent, Greg Williams, said he called the Rams at the end of the season to discuss their plans for Holt, but hadn't heard back from the organization. "I didn't know if they would be rebuilding or looking to trade [Holt] or if he'd be there to play out his contract," Williams said. "I think if they were going to do something, they would let us know. From my understanding, they have every intention of bringing him back." St. Louis has already released Isaac Bruce, leaving them thin at the position. We highly doubt the Rams have any intentions of moving Holt, unless someone offers a deal too good to be true.
