The Rams are picking second in the NFL Draft for a reason -- they were downright awful in 2009 (and 2008 and 2007 for that matter).
They're quickly trying to revamp that roster via free agency as the draft looms in just over four weeks.
They worked out CB Kevin Dockery, FB Jason McKie, DE Reggie Hayward, DE Jimmy Wilkerson and former Steelers RB Willie Parker.
Parker was especially encouraged by his visit with the Rams brass, according to Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
"Willie enjoyed the visit, enjoyed the coaches and the people he met," said Parker's agent, Douglas Hendrickson. "He liked the possibility of teaming up with Steven Jackson in the backfield."
Parker left the Rams facilities without a contract offer though. He's hoping to team up with Steven Jackson for at least another season.
At age 30, Parker likely doesn't have a lot left to offer to interested teams.

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but the rams have the first overall pick.
