ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Rams picked Todd Gurley of Georgia with the 10th overall pick of the NFL draft Thursday night, making him the first running back taken in the first round since 2012. The Rams opted to get backfield help for new quarterback Nick Foles instead of addressing a thin offensive line. The 6-foot-1, 226-pound Gurley is coming off left knee surgery last November after being suspended for four games earlier in the season for a violation of NCAA rules.
