There were only 9 DL slots to begin with
I'm sure STL knew how many they were keeping BEFORE THE DRAFT even happened
So they went into the draft and picked up Donald at #13
then grabbed Sam with the very last pick
all the while, inviting Westbrooks to camp
Now, that Westbrooks move was disingenuous because they prolly figured he'd beat Sam out anyway.
But, they still gave it a go.
And Sam lost.
So, it's not that Sam lost 1 of 9 slots.
There was only ONE slot left
that slot was left for Sam and Westbrooks to dook it out for
Westbrooks one
#13 pick overall was a SHOE-IN for his spot

all this shit is gonna come down to now is how good of an agent Sam has
every GM has seen what he can do at the NFL level now
so it is up to the agent to convince a GM to at least pick the man up on practice squad

at this point,
Sam will bounce around from team to team on 5 day contracts Wednesday to Monday.
