Rams swoop in at No. 8, grab WR Tavon Austin
Rams traded up to select West Virginia WR Tavon Austin with the No. 8 overall pick, sending the Nos. 16, 46, 78 and 222 picks to the Bills.

They also got back the 71st pick. Desperate to surround Sam Bradford with playmakers, the Rams pay a pretty penny to get the premier skill player in the entire draft. Austin (5-foot-8 1/2, 174) caught 215 balls for 2,475 yards (11.5 YPR) and 20 touchdowns over his final two college seasons, also rushing 88 times for 825 yards (9.4 YPC) and four more scores. He scored five career return touchdowns, four on kickoffs and one on a punt. Austin ran 4.34 in Indy with a 10-foot broad jump and 4.01 short shuttle, the second fastest of all receivers. Although not as physical as Percy Harvin, Austin possesses similar versatility, elusiveness, and explosive burst. Pencil him as a four-down game-changer that could lead the Rams in targets as a rookie.

I think this tells us that they are fine with are running backs and rock at guard. Everyone keeps saying we need a RB and OL I don't think that's the case. I love this trade we need playmakers now.

So I'm confused. I watched Mcshay's analysis and he said we gave up our 2nd and a 7th only. We flopped 3rds so that's a wash.

So unless I'm missing this, we moved up 8 spots to get the guy most wanted and the main piece was a second rounder? I mean the 7th round who cares. I have not seen we gave up a 4th?

If that's the case how is thay paying a pretty penny? To me we got our guy for almost nothing really.
If we trade down from 22 we could pick up another 2nd and still be in great shape.

I don't know about this trade. We got a 3rd a 6th for 22? That's it?

Oh Shoot, I missed the 30th pick. Now we're talking.

Tavon Austin trade up pick = A+

Rams will probably go Ogletree at 30 if there.
