Predicting the St. Louis Rams final roster: defense & special teams

... So, let's jump right in.
DE: Chris Long, Leonard Little, James Hall, Victor Adeyanju These guys seem like locks. I don't know about Eric Moore, but he's a useful role player that contributes on special teams. He could easily get bumped with a good camp from one of the undrafted free agent rookies, particularly former Kansas State DL Ian Campbell.
DT: Clifton Ryan, Adam Carriker, Darell Scott, Orien Harris This is another position where I think we could see a fifth ...

St. Louis Rams make a trade for WR Ronald Curry
Turf Show Times —
The Rams have made a move to address their relative lack of experience at wide receiver, acquiring Ronald Curry from the Lions in exchange for DT Orien Harris. Essentially, the Rams traded Brian Leonard for Curry, since Harris was the guy they got in the Leonard swap.
Curry is a good get for the Rams, and instantly becomes one of the top three receivers. Given his route running ability, but lack of sheer downfield speed, I suspect we'll see him in the slot often, where the Lions had been planning to use him.
Lions Acquire Orien Harris from Rams for Ronald Curry
Pride Of Detroit —
For the second time in the last month or so, the Lions have made a trade involving a wide receiver, this time sending Ronald Curry to the Rams in exchange for defensive tackle Orien Harris. At the end of last month, the Lions acquired Dennis Northcutt from the Jaguars, adding more depth to the wide receiver position. It is now becoming apparent that that move was made because the Lions weren't completely happy with the slot WR position. Curry was signed earlier in the offseason to shore up depth at WR and ...

... middle and are expected to both play a role in run and pass defense. Unlike the defensive ends (who match up against two offensive linemen), the DTs have to deal with three offensive linemen: two guards and a center. Most 4-3's assign a DT to the nose tackle position to take on two OL - the center and a guard. In the past two years, this is where you've seen Adam Carriker play, but word is he's moving over, so expect a new name (Dorell Scott? Clifton Ryan?) to line up as the NT.
The linebackers are ...

He has a career rushing average of 3.5 yards per carry while at St. Louis and 6.1 yards per catch. He is noted as being a pass catcher coming out of the backfield as well as having something that the Bengals need: good character. ...

Cut: Sean Conover, Orion Martin
The defensive line is very interesting as far as how many players will make the team. At defensive end, I'm confident that it will only be the four listed above, which made this a fairly easy position to predict.

Defensive tackle was the complete opposite. I ...

Center: Dominic Raiola, Dylan Gandy
I expected only Raiola to make the team, but the Lions kept Gandy, who can also play guard.
Defensive End: Dewayne White, Jason Hunter, Cliff Avril, Andre Fluellen, Copeland Bryan
The Lions' depth at this position isn't great, but it's not bad, either.

Lions Claim Turk McBride, Release Orien Harris

... news that McBride had been released, more than a few folks were chalking him up to another Herm Edwards draft pick failed. Well, McBride just didn't fit the scheme. He did everything the "Todd Haley Way" as Nick Wright of 610 Sports said this morning.
So, I think in a 4-3 defense, McBride's still got a chance. Just because he was cut from the Chiefs doesn't mean he's a bad player. He's just not a fit for what they do.
