SI.com’s Peter King writes that the St Louis Rams are “comfortable” drafting Oklahoma State WR Justin Blackmon with their #6 overall pick.
King adds that the Rams are also considering Notre Dame WR Michael Floyd, but believes Blackmon is most likely higher on their draft board.
Last week, there was talk that Mississippi State DT Fletcher Cox could actually be in play for the Rams at #6, but the consensus has been that they’ll ultimately end up selecting Blackmon and addressing their need at receiver to start the draft.

If they want Blackmon, they better trade up. I’ll be shocked if he’s still available at 6.
