The Rams also traded a conditional seventh-round pick in 2015 to the Atlanta Falcons.

Good moves & pickups tonight imo.

Great day for Rams

If Bradford is worth a shite, St. Louis could be very good

Agreed Rams had a very good day, I'm hoping Bradford can stay healthy & Austin can develop into another Amendola. W/O Dola the Offense was anemic last season.

Great day for the StL. I have no connection to the Rams, but for some reason I always like seeing them succeed. I like their picks a lot

Austin is electric & I saw Ogletree pretty much play every weekend he's definitely the real deal.

Hopefully the Rams can continue this good draft, definitely one of the winners in tonights 1st round for sure.

Charts & Mike Sando verdict on both the Rams trades from Round 1:

quote:

1st Trade:

St. Louis Rams give up: 16th, 46th, 78th and 222nd picks

Buffalo Bills give up: 8th and 71st picks

Old trade chart verdict: no clear winner. The Rams gave up picks with 1643.6 points for picks worth 1,635 points. Drake: "The team trading down (Bills) received excess value equal to zero number one picks, 1 percent more value than they traded away."

Harvard chart verdict: Bills win decisively. They received picks worth 587.7 points for picks worth 451 points. Drake: "The team trading down (Bills) received excess value equal to .28 number one picks, 31 percent more value than they traded away."

Sando comment: The Rams paid a premium for moving up to get a player they think can be special. The Bills had a quarterback in mind and got him later in the round. This marks the second consecutive year the Rams have traded away a pick used by the other team to land a quarterback.


quote:

2nd Trade:

St. Louis Rams give up: 22nd pick and 2015 seventh-round pick

Atlanta Falcons give up: 30th, 92nd and 198th picks

Old trade chart verdict: no clear winner. The 2015 seventh-rounder isn't worth much. I did not account for it in this exercise. The 22nd pick is worth 780 points on the old chart. The picks St. Louis gave up are worth 765.2 points. Drake: "The team trading up (Falcons) received excess value equal to zero number one picks, 2 percent more value than they traded away."

Harvard chart verdict: Rams win decisively. They received picks worth 360.3 points for a pick worth 232.3 points. There's no way a 2015 seventh-rounder would close such a gap given that the top pick in the 2013 seventh round would be worth 40.7 points on the Harvard chart. Drake: "The team trading down (Rams) received excess value equal to .26 number one picks, 56 percent more value than they traded away."

Sando comment: If the Rams paid a premium for Austin, they got it back, and then some, with this trade. I thought moving back from No. 22 made great sense for the Rams if they could get an impact player at No. 16. They paid more than I would have anticipated to move up from No. 16, but the trade down from No. 22 made things balance out favorably.

Round 2 is underway! Remember the Rams do not have a pick in the 2nd round, but 2 in the 3rd round @ 71st & 92nd overall.

Rama should trade Bradford for Geno Smith after the draft.

Run the WVU offense next year.
