Being the first selection of a so-called new “era” or “regime” for a football team may seem daunting. It speaks to how much a front office can believe in a player.
That point likely stands true for Los Angeles Rams Tight End Gerald Everett. Everett was the Rams first draft selection under the new era of Head Coach Sean McVay as the 44th overall selection in the 2017 NFL Draft.
Tight End is one of the toughest positions for college athletes to translate into the NFL. Why? I’m not really sure to be honest.
