The Los Angeles Rams have tried, and failed, to trade up and select the future tight end of the team for the past three seasons. While that may seem like a minor matter after the team ultimately chose to trade back in the 2025 NFL Draft and select tight end Terrance Ferguson, the strategy has met with new complications.
It seems that this is the year for rookies selected in Round 2 of the 2025 NFL Draft have chosen to fight for guaranteed monies, and that has created a bit of a domino effect as young players have refused to sign until enough of their rookie salary for the next four years is guaranteed.
