For those upset about the Rams giving up two 1st rounders... Here are the Rams recent 1st round picks:
2009 Jason Smith
2010 Sam Bradford
2011 Robert Quinn
2012 Michael Brockers
2013 Tavon Austin + Alec Olgetree
2014 Greg Robinson + Aaron Donald
2015 Todd Gurley
2016 Jared Goff
Maybe Les has learned a lesson here. Proven commodities are more valuable than picks. Out of our last 10 1st round picks, SIX of them are misses. Four of them were completely useless (Smith, Bradford, Austin, Robinson) and two of them were average players (Ogletree, Goff). Add the fact that our 1st round picks will be late 1st rounders, it make sense to take the proven player.
Now lets look at our trades and FA signings:
Andrew Whitworth
Robert Woods
John Sulivan
Sammy Watkins
Brandin Cooks
Aqib Talib
Marcus Peters
Dante Fowler
Ndamukong Suh
Jalen Ramsey
Leonard Floyd
Matthew Stafford
Majority of the FA and trade signings made a MUCH bigger impact.
