Currently, here are the 4th rounders on the roster in addition to Bennett:
Coby Durant (CB), 2022
BB3 (DL) 2021
Robert Rochell (CB) 2021
Brycen Hopkins (TE) 2020
…and
Tyler Higbee (TE) 2016
You would have to go all the back to Az Hakim and Roland Williams in 1997 to find a better or even comparable 4th round draft than Higbee.

Incidentally, the Rams also picked up Pharoah Cooper in the 4th round in 2016. Wasn’t he an all-pro returner in 2017?

It should be noted - that in 1961, there were only 14 teams drafting players. Which is to say, Deacon Jones was picked at # 186. Today, the 186th pick is a 6th round player.

As a side note, Deacon Jones was stumbled on by the LA Rams, who were scouting some running backs - and this defensive tackle was outrunning the backs they were scouting..... :woozy2:

Yes he was! The Deacon was chasing running backs down after chasing them across the field and catching them from behind.
