The Rams were making calls to move up and teams believed L.A. was seeking to draft Arizona WR Tetairoa McMillan, per source.

McMillan was selected by the Panthers at No. 8.

That makes me feel better. Rams know WR talent.

They say that about some pick in every draft. Traded up for Brooks because Dallas was going to take him. Take TMJ because NO was going to take him. Sounds like they are trying to justify the pick.

[TheSpecialJuan]

Good stuff 

[PleaseCutStewart]

I feel like I heard the Rams wanted to take like five different people in the first round... I feel like I heard everyone say the Rams wanted to draft Dart and then traded down after the Giants got him.

At the end of the day, most of these people are blowing smoke out of their ass with these reports

theres sandbagging every draft, but after the pick I felt better and really felt like we tried to play some teams.  I remember in december/november he was like a #3/#4 overall pick.  I think teams were sandbagging hard on him.  In Fairness, I think teams were also (probably us too) sandbagging Mason Graham.  Teams took the bait on Tet.  I had a feeling something was up when we did a personal visit with him.  didnt seem like our MO.  That said, I will die on the hill that IMO, we were prepared to trade back, the idea was if Ashton Jeanty fell, and I still think the Cowboys sell their soul  for #8 if he was there, he wasnt so they stayed pat.  Legit all of this falls in line with the rumors.

I like going BPA and not taking a player just for need. We see where Walker and some of the other ends wound up. 

[Waldo]

Yeah and they also tried to mega trade for Burns. Teams do dumb stuff all the time

[SOJA]

Both the cowboys and rams wanted him. Both of those teams are very good at drafting

you know we fuged up if we are having to use other teams as justification of our draft pick

Don't think we fuged up at all. We need an X WR. You can not sign one in FA, trading for any of them worth a damn is too costly. You basically have to draft one. 

 

Big fan of this move. There were major questions marks with any defensive prospect we took at 8

[Shocker]

Let me guess they offered 3 firsts.
