At the time of the 2016 NFL Draft, there were some critics that believed the Los Angeles Rams were making a mistake by giving up numerous picks in order to trade up in the first round with the Tennessee Titans to take Jared Goff at No. 1.
For years leading up to 2016, the Rams were in desperate need of help at the quarterback position, and went through numerous players that turned out to be complete busts, which was frustrating at times since the defense was in decent shape.
Gambling on Goff following a stellar career at California seemed risky at the time, but looking back, this was the best decision Los Angeles ever could have made since this team has become a serious threat in the NFC over the last two seasons.
