I look at these mock drafts, and I swear they just have a list of 1 - 250 and who ever pops up whenever it's a team's turn they just insert the next guy on their list.
The Rams haven't prioritized MLB since James Laurenitis that can tell. And since Snead, they seem content to man it with late picks that were developmental players.
Perhaps it's the belief that 3-4 ILBs are different guys..... kind of oversized safeties now.... or that it has become one of the lesser important positions on a D.
But I think it would be a reverse of policy and direction if suddenly the Rams used a higher pick on an ILB. For one thing, unless the guy is an absolute freak, you're going to have to get big or you're going to have to get mobile and fast. Rams seem to want mobile and fast. Not only that but in today's game, you want pass rushers and pass defenders..... OLBs, DL, and Secondary. ILB's? Not so much.
