The Los Angeles Rams find themselves in an interesting spot with the 13th overall pick. In a draft that’s thinner at the top, it’s possible that the board favors a trade down scenario. At the same time, as seen in recent years, the board doesn’t always fall as many expected. In the case of 2024, […]
