Rams to be without top pick Smith for at least a week

The PFT power rankings aren’t out this week yet, but we’ll give you a little sneak preview: The Rams aren’t ranked very high this week.

Despite a noble effort in Washington, St. Louis could have the worst offense in football. And it’s not getting any better this week.

As mentioned in Alper’s one-liners today, number two overall pick Jason Smith is expected to miss at least one week, maybe two with a sprained knee.

The injury to Smith continues a somewhat slow start to his career; he didn’t “earn” a starting job until right before the season. Center Jason Brown also hurt his knee, but is expected to play this weekend.

With the Lions hosting a winnable game this week against the Redskins -- sorry Florio -- the Rams could be staring at the bottom of the power rankings before long.
