I suspect that he’s identified quite a few players that he likes in the 3rd and 4th rounds. Players that can be solid contributors for the Rams.
Real good value, IOW. Consequently, I doubt that we’ll see dramatic trades up into the late 2nd, maybe not even into the higher 3rd.
I further suspect (maybe even expect) that Snead has plans for all 4 of his top picks and will resist temptations to trade up from them.
The 6th rounders are another story. They are bargaining chips that he might well use to get back into the 5th IF a player that he really likes has fallen. There are only so many roster spots that are even remotely open on this roster, anymore, so Snead may be wanting quality over quantity at this point.
But I’m just spitballin’ here, trying to get into the minds of S&M. Anything halfway reasonable in terms of doabilitiy is still on the table with these guys in this draft. Makes it more entertaining, huh?
This is a “different” Ram draft. The marquee names will be long gone before our first turn. But for those of us following this team closely it will be fascinating to observe the picks and moves as the Ram strategy unfolds. I, for one, will be keeping a close eye on this board during the Ram part of this draft as our draft experts do a deep dive into the Ram reasoning.
