Also, his knee is killing him, he may not even play beyond the end of this contract. I hope Torry finishes with the Rams but Issac Bruce wanted to finish with us too but wouldn't renegotiate his contract from $5 million to $3 million. The Rams thought he wasn't worth $5 million (which as much as I love Issac, he isn't) and let him go play for that tool Martz. If Torry's knee continues to cause him problems is he going to be worth the $5-$6 million that he asks for in two years. Prolly not. Sucks but thats the reality.

I'm a Lambs fan, and I see nothing wrong with what Torry is saying. I'd like to see him retire a Ram, but I'll still root for him if he left.

He would welcome to finish off his career in one spot.. But he feels it is unlikely that the Rams will give him an extension for what he wants. So Carolina would be his first choice as a free agent.

I have always liked Torry Holt but I don't think he is close the the player he once was. Add to the fact St. Louis is horrible and will get worse before they get any better....Sheesh - let him go and rebuild.

On one end, Holt is a HOF receiver who I would want to see retire as a Ram, on the other end, he'd be 34 years old, so if he felt that he wanted to go finish his career at home playing alongside his younger brother, I'd understand. If a player on my team was in his prime and said that I'd be angry with that player, but not so much when the player is looking to finish his career at home. Either way, as Holt appears to be assuming the mantle of "NFL's Class-Act Receiver" from Harrison, if I were a Rams fan I'd want him and Bruce to retire as Rams...oops!
