The Post-Dispatch projects Brian Quick and Chris Givens as the Rams' starting outside receivers.
Tavon Austin is locked into the slot and Jared Cook will be shifted all over the formation as a "move" tight end. Austin Pettis, Stedman Bailey and Lance Kendricks will be talented reserves. "We're going to lobby with the league to see if we can play with more than one ball," coach Jeff Fisher joked. Although Quick is likely to start, his Dynasty arrow is pointing down. The Rams acquired some serious pass-catching talent this offseason. Apr 30 - 10:16 AM

Coach Jeff Fisher reiterated that Brian Quick will be counted on for a much bigger role in his second season.

The Rams may draft a movable-chess-piece like Tavon Austin in April, but they're counting on Quick to start on the outside. "We’ve always said players make their biggest improvement from year one to year two," Fisher said. "Brian’s second year in the system, we expect him to (develop). The guy’s gonna make a lot of plays for us." The Rams are publicly comparing Quick to Vincent Jackson.

Rams GM Les Snead stated at the Combine that the team expects "more" from 2012 second-round pick Brian Quick in year two.

Quick's production underwhelmed as a rookie, but Snead says he "knew" the transition from D-IAA Appalachian State "would be an issue," and noted that Quick flashed big-play ability. Snead compared Quick to Vincent Jackson, who caught only three passes during his rookie year coming out of small-school Northern Colorado. Quick is a player to monitor closely entering 2013 fantasy season.

Brian Quick was held without a catch in Week 17 against the Seahawks.

Quick was targeted once on a deep ball down the left sideline but that was it for the second-round rookie out of Appalachian State. The No. 33 overall pick appeared in 15 games for the Rams but caught just 11 passes for 156 yards and two touchdowns. Coming into the league, everyone knew Quick was very raw, so we'll look for him to take that next step in 2013. Outside receiver Brandon Gibson is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent, and Quick should have his sights set on taking that job in the offseason. At 6-foot-3 and 220 pounds, he showed the ability to win a couple of jump balls over the course of the season, but his route-running is a major area that needs improvement. Quick is a Dynasty "hold" at the moment.

Brian Quick caught two passes for 12 yards and a touchdown in St. Louis' Week 15 loss to the Vikings.

The Rams finally decided to take advantage of their rookie wideout's 6-foot-3, 220-pound frame in the second quarter, lofting him a jump ball in the end zone. Going up against 5-10 CB Josh Robinson, Quick easily pulled it down for his second score of the year. However, his snaps remained extremely limited while the two-catch effort was only his second of 2012. The No. 33 pick is an interesting Dynasty-league case heading into the offseason. He's done just enough to remain a "hold."

Brian Quick caught one pass for six yards in St. Louis' Week 14 win over the Bills.

Quick was on the field for only a handful of plays. His catch came on St. Louis' opening possession of the second half. With 13 games in the books, the first pick of the second round of April's draft has just nine catches for 144 yards.

Brian Quick caught one pass for three yards in St. Louis' Week 13 win over the 49ers.

Quick appeared to be playing more snaps at the expense of Brandon Gibson, but still drew only two targets. Quick has breached the two-catch barrier just once in 11 games, and won't be a fantasy factor down the stretch.

Brian Quick caught one pass for nine yards in St. Louis' Week 11 loss to the Jets.

Quick was spotted before garbage time for the second consecutive week, but still drew only two targets. Don't believe the Rams' pledges to get him more involved until you see it.

Coach Jeff Fisher plans to increase WR Brian Quick's opportunities moving forward.

"He's coming on," Fisher said. "He shows he can make plays ... And we'll look to find more ways to get him involved." After playing less than 10 percent of the snaps last week, Quick remains well off the radar in redraft leagues.

Even with Chris Givens inactive, rookie Brian Quick played on just 7-of-83 offensive snaps in Week 10.

Quick looked strong on a 36-yard touchdown catch, but the No. 33 overall pick continues to be buried on the depth chart. Brandon Gibson played 71 plays, Danny Amendola played on 70 and Austin Pettis saw 45. Even Steve Smith (14 snaps) was on the field more than Quick. The Post-Dispatch suggests that Quick's digestion of the playbook remains an issue.

Brian Quick caught a 36-yard touchdown in St. Louis' Week 10 tie with the 49ers.

Seeing some rare first-half snaps in the absence of Chris Givens, Quick took advantage of a busted coverage to score his first-career touchdown. It ended up being his only target of the afternoon, however. With Givens likely to return in Week 11 and the coaching staff's trust in the No. 33 pick still obviously low, there's no guarantee Quick will see the field before garbage time next weekend.

Beat writer Jim Thomas notes second-round WR Brian Quick hasn't looked "very ready to play."

Quick dropped a pass, had to be told where to line up and seemed to lose a ball in flight in limited action versus the Patriots in Week 8. With Danny Amendola (clavicle) returning, Chris Givens emerging as a big-play weapon, and Austin Pettis' snaps on the rise, Quick is a poor bet for a major role going forward.

Playing in garbage time of St. Louis' 45-7 Week 8 loss to the Patriots, Brian Quick caught one pass for 39 yards.

With backup Kellen Clemens in the game, Quick won a jump-ball in tight one-on-one coverage. Things went poorly before that, however, as Quick muffed an easy catch before appearing to run the wrong route on Sam Bradford's lone interception of the day. Never on the field before things get out of hand, Quick is miles from redraft relevance.

Brian Quick caught two passes for 31 yards in St. Louis' Week 7 loss to the Packers.

Quick wasn't spotted before garbage time, where he made both of his catches. Still unable to crack the Rams' receiver rotation despite the absence of Danny Amendola, Quick is miles from fantasy relevance.

Brian Quick caught one pass for one yard in St. Louis' Week 6 loss to the Dolphins.

Despite the absence of Danny Amendola, Quick was targeted just two times. His second look was nearly a disaster for the Rams, as he ran the wrong route on St. Louis' desperation final possession, hanging Sam Bradford out to dry. Clearly not ready for primetime, there's no reason to believe Quick will be a bigger part of the game-plan in Week 7 against the Packers.
