The Los Angeles Rams have done a complete 180 on the NFL draft. Previously laughing in the face of the event, the Rams thought they were too cool for the NFL offseason's marquee event. From flashy draft houses to openly adopting a slogan of " (expletive) them picks," there is no arguing that the strategy worked.

ESPN's Ben Solak presented an argument for why the Rams may trade down during the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft.

The Rams came into the draft with eight picks, including the 26th overall selection, but they made a trade on Thursday night to bail out of the first round. They sent No. 26 to the Falcons for No. 46, No. 242 and a 2026 first-rounder, also sending No. 101 to Atlanta in the deal.
