“F them picks” is misleading. The only reason the Los Angeles Rams earned the reputation of not caring about draft picks is simply because Les Snead hasn’t actually used a first round pick on selecting a prospect since trading up for Jared Goff in 2016. Admittedly, that is a long time to go without using a first round pick as intended or expected. But the Rams have actually used a lot of draft picks under Snead, including 14 rookie prospects in 2013, and the strategy is proving that you don’t need a day one pick to find a day one player.
