03/30/08 - Just when it looked as if the Rams' first-round draft possibilities were down to three options — offensive tackle (Michigan's Jake Long), defensive end (Virginia's Chris Long or Ohio State's Vernon Gholston) or a trade down — along comes Glenn Dorsey. The defensive tackle from Louisiana State reasserted his status as an elite draft prospect during his pro day workout Wednesday in Baton Rouge, La. The Rams, among others, were impressed. "I think he answered every question that people had on him — physically and mentally," said Billy Devaney, the Rams' executive vice president of player personnel. "It was really an impressive day for him physically." Apparently, things went well for Dorsey on the medical front, too. LSU went out of its way to clear up any questions about Dorsey's injury history, which includes a knee problem last season and a stress fracture in 2006. LSU made its athletic trainer and team orthopedic doctor available. They also had medical reports on Dorsey available from five independent orthopedic doctors. The Rams will have their own doctors examine Dorsey during his pre-draft visit to Rams Park April 13-14. - Jim Thomas, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
