Quick, Givens expected starters -- Tue Apr 30 9:00 am --
Tavon Austin to be used all over the field | At the moment, Brian Quick and Chris Givens project as the starting outside receivers, with Austin in the slot. The Rams could pair those three up in two tight end sets with Cook and Kendricks in what would be an empty backfield. Three- and four-receiver sets figure to see more use at the Edward Jones Dome than they have since the days of Mike Martz. (St. Louis Post-Dispatch)
FF Today's Take: The Rams have rebuilt their offense and while Quick and Givens will be noted as starting receivers, Tavon Austin out of the slot may have have the most fantasy value of the three, especially in PPR leagues. Expect him to be used in a Percy Harvin-type role, from the slot receiver position, out of the backfield as a running back and on special teams as a returner.
|  | Rams move up, grab WR Austin -- Thu Apr 25 7:10 pm --
Tavon Austin, first receiver taken in 2013 draft | The St. Louis Rams got help for quarterback Sam Bradford, trading up eight spots with Buffalo and taking West Virginia wide receiver Tavon Austin with the eighth overall selection in the NFL draft. (ESPN)
FF Today's Take: Austin essentially fills the void left behind by Danny Amendola. It also suggests the team has plenty of confidence in Brian Quick. Austin should contend for the team lead in receptions, receiving yards and TDs in his rookie season while also giving the Rams a big boost in the return game. Fantasy-wise, Austin's floor should be a WR4 in all leagues. The Rams now sport a receiving lineup of Quick, Chris Givens, Austin and TE Jared Cook.
| | Opportunity exists in St. Louis -- Thu Mar 21 2:00 pm --
Bigger roles expected for Givens and Gibson | When it comes to those "options" at wide receiver and also at running back, Fisher was speaking specifically of the Rams’ draft class of 2012. Namely, wideouts Chris Givens and Brian Quick, and running backs Daryl Richardson and Isaiah Pead. Brian’s second year in the system, we expect him to (develop)," Fisher said. "The guy’s gonna make a lot of plays for us. And the same’s the case for Chris and Isaiah. Those three are gonna have to step up and play some major roles in our offense." (St. Louis Post-Dipsatch)
FF Today's Take: With Danny Amendola and Brandon Gibson leaving via free agency, Quick and Givens are penciled in as starting wideouts with Pead sharing time with Daryl Richardson in the backfield. The speedster Givens hauled in 42 catches, 698 yards and 3 TDs in his rookie season. As a group, their fantasy stock is on the rise.
