As an Afterthought, Rams Draft Flutie
If the United States Football League folds or Doug Flutie plays out his contract with the New Jersey Generals--whichever comes first--Ram Coach John Robinson will have yet another quarterback on his hands.
The Rams, apparently with nothing better in mind, spent their last, 11th-round pick in Tuesday’s National Football League draft for a future claim on the quarterback from Boston College.
Robinson, who already seems to have a problem in trading Vince Ferragamo after the arrival of Dieter Brock, had no immediate comment on the selection. He had already left Rams Park for the night.
The Rams had no 12th-round pick.
