The LA Rams have a treasured NFL history. Many former Rams players have made their marks on history both on the field and off the field. Former Rams running back Wendell Tyler, chosen from the 3rd round in the 1977 NFL Draft, played very well in San Francisco after six seasons in LA.
There were two drafts where the Rams first selection was in the third round. In 1948, they selected defensive back Tom Keane. In 2018, they picked offensive tackle Joseph Noteboom.
The LA Rams are no strangers to wheeling and dealing with draft picks.
