Rams' Draft History: Busts & Breakthroughs

Rams' Draft History: Busts & Breakthroughs

Published 1 month ago
Description

The Los Angeles Rams have had a relatively clean record in the NFL draft, with only a few notable busts over the past fifty years. Despite trading away talented players like Sean Gilbert and Jerome Bettis for running back Lawrence Phillips, he failed to deliver and was cut after two seasons due to off-field issues. Quarterback Sam Bradford, the first overall pick in 2010, had a promising start but was plagued by injuries and never made the playoffs. The Rams 2012 trade for Robert Griffin IIIs draft rights yielded some solid players, but didnt lead to a turnaround. These missteps contributed to years of mediocrity, but under Sean McVay and Les Snead, the Rams have improved their draft strategy and are now contenders.
