The 2011 Arrowhead Pride Mock Draft continues with Sam D choosing for the St. Louis Rams at No. 47...
After missing out on both Julio Jones and AJ Green in the first round, the Rams nervously watched pick after pick, wondering when the wide receiver slide was going to happen. Surprisingly, only Torrey Smith of Maryland was selected prior to their choice in the second round, a prospect praised for his speed but who is viewed cautiously for his physical attributes.

Luckily, there remains talented prospects at this point, and the Rams don't have to settle.
With the 47th pick in the 2011 AP Mock Draft, the Saint Louis Rams select:
Miami WR Leonard Hankerson
After a less than stellar performance with the Canes in 2010, Hankerson finds himself in an intriguing position. He's a big-bodied, physical receiver in the mold of our own Dwayne Bowe at 6'2" and 210 pounds, and the comparisons don't stop there. Hankerson doesn't possess elite speed, but is quite fast for his size, and has a knack for dropping "gimme" passes. Yep, sounds exactly like our own Double Dwaynebowe.
And we all saw what that kind of talent can become: Bowe came into the league and had back-to-back exceptional seasons (995 and 1022 yards, respectively) and put up a combined 12 touchdowns during those two years. While his third season saw a slump, everybody was around for his amazing 15 touchdown performance this season. Sounds like somebody Bradford and Spagnuolo would love to have on their field.
