Hakeem Nicks, Brandon Tate visit St. Louis Rams

Posted Apr 16, 2009
This is a deep, talented NFL draft pool at wide receiver. In a telling sign that the Rams are looking to restock the position, six of the 24 confirmed pre-draft visitors to Rams Park this week are wide receivers. Visiting Rams Park this week are: North Carolina's Hakeem Nicks, who might still be available at the top of the second round. Tar Heels teammate Brandon Tate, who projects as a mid-round pick following season-ending knee surgery last fall. (St. Louis Post-Dispatch)
