In a stunning move that shakes up the top of the draft and almost ensures that the Rams will be starting a rookie quarterback in 2016, the Tennessee Titans traded the No. 1 pick in the 2016 NFL Draft to the Los Angeles Rams, both teams announced Thursday morning. The Rams, previously selecting at No. 15, are one of the lowest-picking team in NFL history to trade up to the No. 1 spot. The move, however, did not come cheap. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap30...ams-trade-up-to-acquire-no-1-pick-from-titans
I know all drafts are crap shoots but if the best player in the draft is either an offensive lineman or an outside linebacker then there is no "franchise" qb and that is what you possibly give up that much for. granted, the Rams are sorta one good/great qb away from being a great team but their offensive line needs help, which two of those second round picks could have fixed. I don't see either Goff or Weintz being a franchise qb. they could be very good but very good isn't worth 2 #1s, 2 #2s and 2 #3s. The Rickey debacle really hurt us for years for lack of depth. The Titans did very well. It helps when you already have your franchise qb. They should do very well in this draft to help build this team around him.
