The Los Angeles Rams didn’t go all-in for Christian McCaffrey the way they did with Matthew Stafford and Jalen Ramsey, but they did make a push to acquire the All-Pro running back. And according to Peter Schrager, their offer to the Panthers was similar to the 49ers’.
The difference was that the 49ers offered a fourth-rounder in addition to a second and third, but the Rams could only give a fifth; they traded their 2023 fourth-rounder for Sony Michel.
Otherwise, the Rams also offered a second- and third-round pick for McCaffrey like San Francisco.

The Rams we’re clearly motivated to add running back help, but the 49ers wanted McCaffrey a little bit more. It’ll now be interesting to see if the Rams use those picks to target another position like outside linebacker or the offensive line.
