Back in 2016, the Los Angeles Rams decided to take a risk by trading up for the top pick of the NFL Draft in order to land former California star Jared Goff.
At the time, the Rams had the No. 15 pick in the first round, and while the Tennessee Titans certainly didn’t make it cheap for them to trade up for the top spot to land Goff after seeing all of the draft picks they had to give up, there’s no question it was well worth it for the team.
After all of the frustrating years spent trying to find a reliable quarterback to potentially build the franchise around, Los Angeles was hopeful that Goff would be the one to finally put an end to all of the issues.
