THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- From Jamon Brown to Cody Wichmann to, now, Andrew Donnal. The Los Angeles Rams have used three of their 2015 draft picks at right guard this year, desperate for a spark for an offensive line that has been an unmitigated disaster all season.
Donnal, a fourth-round pick out of Iowa, had spent the year as a backup at every offensive-line position. But he took 93 percent of the snaps at right guard against the Atlanta Falcons two Sundays ago and every single one of them against the Seattle Seahawks the following Thursday, a game that saw Brown take a very rare snap at fullback.
