1. FYI on #Rams losing Sammy Watkins: Rams were in contact with Watkins' camp through out Monday. But at the end of the day, $48m over three years, and $30m guaranteed, was higher than they were willing to go.
2. #Rams are high on Josh Reynolds as a replacement for Watkins, and Mike Thomas will also be in the mix. But obviously wide receiver is now a position they'll also look to the draft and free agency to address.
There sure are a lot of positions they need to look at in the draft and without a 2nd rounder, they will only be able to do so much through the draft. Unless a top target that isn’t expected to be there at #23 falls into their laps, the Rams will do everything in their power to trade down out of that #23 slot and acquire another pick or two.
