    The most prominent St. Louis Rams newcomer missed the first day of rookie workouts. Teammates expected to see quarterback Sam Bradford soon enough.

    Veteran A.J. Feeley, who'll be the starter until Bradford's ready, said Thursday that missing one day of practice is no big deal.

    "It's not the end of the world," Feeley said. "You'd like to have him out here to work these guys, but he's been through the whole offseason program.

    "Sam's a smart guy, he's bright. I don't see him lagging, I don't see him sitting at home on the couch not doing anything."

    Offensive tackle Jason Smith's experience last year might be a blueprint for the timetable on Bradford, given he and Bradford have the same agents, Tom Condon and Ben Dogra of St. Louis. Smith was the second overall pick last year and signed a five-year contract worth as much as $62 million with $33 million in guaranteed money in time for the first full-squad workout.

    This year, the first workout is Saturday.
