The Rams have selected DE George Selvie with the 226th overall pick (7th round) of the NFL Draft.  Selvie is a tad small at 6′4″, 248 pounds but he runs a 4.75 40.  Despite being a little small for defensive end Selvie makes up for it because of his strength.  He played in 13 games (all starts) for South Florida last season in which he had 42 tackles, 9.5 tackles for a loss, 3.5 sacks, he batted down 2 passes, forced 1 fumble and he recovered 1 fumble.  Selvie played in 51 games (50 starts) in his four years with the Bulls in which he had 227 tackles, 69.5 tackles for a loss, 29 sacks, he batted down 8 passes, forced 9 fumbles and he recovered 5 fumbles.  This was outstanding value for the Rams as Selvie is a much better football than most of the guys picked this late in the draft.
