A Little Fun with Rams Drafts (quiz)

May 09, 2017 07:01PM
After this year's draft, I got to thinking about previous Rams drafts... looking only at drafts from 2000-2017. I wondered to myself "where are they all now and what are they doing?". So, I looked up all 154 players the Rams have drafted since 2000 and started digging for information that would answer that question. For some players, the information just isn't there no matter how far you look. For others, you can find out what they're doing now and then some. I learned a lot along the way, like the 154 players drafted came from 88 different colleges & universities. Maybe you guys knew this stuff already, but I didn't so it was fun finding out some gee whiz data. I've gone about as far as I can with it so I thought I'd cap it off by posting a short "Rams Draftee" quiz for ya'll, just for fun. Remember this involves only players who were drafted by the Rams... not free agents, trades, walk-ons, etc. I'll post the answers later.

1. What defensive player, now retired, played on 3 different teams and had a productive 14-yr NFL career, longer than any other Rams draftee since 2000?
2. The Rams have drafted 7 quarterbacks since 2000. What former Rams QB draftee is currently a youth pastor at a church in Amarillo, TX?
3. This Heisman trophy winning QB was drafted to play WR but was plagued with injuries during training camp. He didn’t even last a season in the NFL. He retired before the second game of the season and returned his signing bonus. Who is it?
4. The Rams have drafted players for this position more than any other since 2000. What position is it and how many players have been taken for this position since 2000?
5. What 3 colleges have produced the most draftees for the Rams since 2000?
6. What draftee was raised on a tobacco farm, worked on local farms on his days off while in the NFL, and when he retired, went back to his home state to continue working on his family’s farms?
7. What draftee is now an NFL commentator on CBS and is married to a former Playboy Playmate of the month?
8. There is only one Rams player drafted between 2000-2007 who is still on a team’s active roster. Who is it?
9. 7 players drafted by the Rams got Super Bowl rings with other teams after they left the Rams. One player has TWO rings with two different teams (although he didn’t actually play in either game). Who is it?
10. This Rams draftee is one of only two players of Indian-American descent to ever play in the NFL. What's his name?
