Missing out on Brock Bowers could be blessing in disguise for Rams
A video recently surfaced of Sean McVay and Les Snead in the Los Angeles Rams NFL Draft war room attempting a trade up to the early part of the first round for Georgia TE Brock Bowers. LA tried to trade up with the New York Jets and Minnesota Vikings before coming to terms with the fact they were unlikely to land the prolific pass catcher.
In the end the Rams stayed put in the first round and selected Florida State’s OLB Jared Verse at 19 overall. They also were able to hold onto their second and third round picks. After an aggressive trade up to the early second round in order to choose Verse’s college teammate DE Braden Fiske, LA landed Michigan RB Blake Corum in the third round.
