Admittedly, I don't know much bout the draft.
But he's ranked 6th overall, Clayburn from Iowa is 9th overall. What makes you think Quinn would fall 10 spots?
I think Clayborn's a Top 10 NFL Pick, IMO. But if he's there at 15 and from a PR perspective(he's from Webster Groves), he would be a good fit. I've seen mocks where Clayborn has been at 4 and where Quinn is at 12. Looking at walterfootball.com mock, they have Clayborn going 20th to Tampa(this wasn't updated after today's games, though).

I think they can beat all of the teams in the NFC West in STL, with a win or two against one of the teams in the division on the road, wins against both Cincy and Cleveland, Redskins, maybe Cowboys depending on where the game is, same with the Giants if it's in St. Louis. I'm going with an early prediction of 9-7.

That's cute
I haven't seen their schedule yet(I have seen the 49ers though). Make fun of me and call me an idiot if you want to.

They'll be a lot closer to 9-7 than 5-11. They aren't nearly as bad as you think they are.

I don't dislike the Rams at all, and only root against them when they play the Chiefs. But yes, they are as bad as I think they are. 25th or so in offense and 20th or so in defense isn't good. It's not even mediocre. They had the good fortune to be in a terrible division. That's about it. They may have made strides in the division, but compared to the rest of the NFL they are mediocre, at best. There is a lot of work to be done with this team.

I see Clayburn and Jones on my quick search.
I think Bradford/offense gets better with first round WR talent than the defense gets better with first round DE talent. Though, I'm usually in the camp a head coach should have first round talent (typically) outside his strength assuming a decent GM. i.e. Tony Dungy (granted not at draft time) was a defensive minded coach and had Peyton Manning. Actually it'd seem most of the "great" QB's come from defensive/run type offenses. Manning, Brady, Rodgers, Rivers - some of these programs have changed of course, but I'd argue they were born out of their systems. Spags and his D had some marked improvement this year, and I think he could do more with a 2nd Round DE than a 2nd Round WR.
