The LA Rams treat the value of their first-round draft picks just like the girl in the Beatles song Ticket to Ride. Only, instead of the fact that she’s got a ticket to ride, the LA Rams don’t have a first-round pick. But the outcome is the exact same. They don’t care.
And no, it’s not reckless and irresponsible to go without a first-round pick since 2016. Picks are to be used to replenish the talent on the NFL roster. The LA Rams simply… choose to replenish that talent in an unorthodox manner.
