The Los Angeles Rams now own the first pick of the NFL draft. No other team can affect what they do with the pick, of course, so there's no reason for a smokescreen now.
Yet, the Rams won't say what their plan is for the first pick, which they acquired on Thursday in a trade with the Tennessee Titans.
"We do have a few players in mind," Rams general manager Les Snead said with a grin during Thursday's press conference, which was televised on NFL Network.
"We’ve been doing this a long time and I can never, ever remember coming out two weeks before the draft and saying, ‘This is the guy we’re taking,'" Rams coach Jeff Fisher said.
