The Rams had a trade in place to go up and get Zack Martin. The trade was with Baltimore. The trade fell through when Dallas took him one spot before the Ravens picked.

After picking Pittsburgh defensive tackle Aaron Donald at No. 13 overall, coach Jeff Fisher said the Rams tried to move back into the first round to grab Notre Dame offensive tackle/guard Zack Martin.
Most observers felt Martin wouldn’t get past the New York Giants at No. 12 overall. But the Giants threw a curve ball by selecting LSU wide receiver Odell Beckham at that spot.
... they felt highly enough of Martin to make a run after him.

But any hopes of landing Martin ended when Dallas grabbed him at No. 16 overall.
The Rams were talking to Baltimore at No. 17 overall about moving up for Martin.
“It would’ve been pricey but worth it,” Fisher said. “That was a good pick by the Cowboys.”
