For a team that drafts well, the future doesn't have to be five years away. It could practically be the day after tomorrow.
Two years ago, the Rams and Eagles used the first two picks in the NFL Draft on Jared Goff and Carson Wentz, a pair of talented-but-flawed quarterbacks not too different from Josh Allen, Sam Darnold and the others at the top of this year's class. Now the Rams have erased years of 7-9 punchlines to become one of the most dynamic, dangerous teams in the NFL. The Eagles? Well, they're just the reigning World Champions.
