Player Notes

May 15, 2008
Torry Holt has reportedly been shouting at rookie Donnie Avery (Houston), according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Holt said, "Right now, I don't have any impressions of Donnie Avery. Hopefully, during training camp he'll show me something." Holt is simply trying to push him to succeed and quarterback Marc Bulger is pleased with Avery's speed and what he can bring to the Rams' aerial attack. Bulger said, "We can put him inside against some nickel defensive backs or some linebackers. But at the same time, he's going to have to, do some other things, because if they know every time he comes in that we're going deep, they have answers for that."

Donnie Avery could be the Rams' third receiver as a rookie, according to The St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Avery ran a 4.43 in the 40-yard dash at the combine, with a pulled hamstring, and has been clocked as fast as 4.29 when healthy. He has good hands too, and Scott Linehan has said he is purely not just a track guy.
