Les Snead and the Los Angeles Rams have done a good job of utilizing their assets to fill most of the Rams roster gaps with day two and day three picks. They’ve moved around the draft board to do so, and it shows that they’re not content simply employing a best player available philosophy. They’ve identified the players that they want to target and put themselves in a position to draft those players when they are value picks as well.
Thus far, they’ve already selected:
- Round 3 (97 overall) - Oklahoma offensive lineman Bobby Evans
- Round 4 (134 overall) - Washington defensive tackle Greg Gaines
- Round 5 (169 overall) - Wisconsin offensive lineman David Edwards
The Rams used the 243rd pick to select safety Nick Scott from Penn State.
