How roster gaps for the teams before and after the Los Angeles Rams at #31 will determine the Rams’ fate in the 2019 NFL Draft

The Los Angeles Rams are currently scheduled to make their first pick of the 2019 NFL Draft with the 31st overall pick, but rumors are already heating up that the Rams could trade down.

On one hand, a trade down would require a team to really fall for someone available there and jump the other interested teams for that prospect. On the other, the teams in front of the Rams will get to determine who comes off the board before the Rams are even on the clock.

Let’s look at both sides and the roster gaps those teams are looking at using this week’s Monday mock from Mocking the Draft’s Dan Kadar and ESPN’s Todd McShay’s recent roster gap piece (ESPN+ subscription required).
