The Rams held the second day of their minicamp for the 2008 season at Rams Park Saturday, and nearly a third of the 85 players on the roster weren't there last year. Coach Scott Linehan enters his third season at the helm of the Rams, hoping to improve the 3-13 record of 2007. The camp continues through Sunday.
