In recent history, the Rams drafted Aaron Donald with the 13th overall pick in the draft but as you all know, he wasn’t the team’s first pick that year. That distinction belonged to Greg Robinson and now they’ll forever be linked, including when Donald is inducted into the Hall of Fame one day and Robinson is only remembered as “What could have been the greatest first round in Rams history.”
But imagine if instead of Robinson, the Rams had instead selected Khalil Mack. We could be talking about two Hall of Famers in the same round, by the same team, in the same year.
