Rams GM Les Snead Reveals Team's Approach on NFL Draft

Rams GM Les Snead recently went though yet another NFL Draft, and the approach taken to the event by each team, each year is different.

And this was no different for Los Angeles this time around.

"Each of those scenarios are case by case," Snead said in an appearance on the Rich Eisen Show. 

He explained the Rams took more of a positions need approach as opposed to best available player on the board, which is sometimes the case.

"In this particular draft though...We were a little more specific in terms of specific positions we were looking for," Snead continued. "Players we were looking for, even our needs."

At one point in the first round, the Rams considered trading back to the No. 26 overall pick. But, ultimately, the team would kick things off in the second round.

We did feel like there was a possibility, good probability we might trade back at 26 based on the way the draft may go. That didn't come to fruition."

Here's a look at the Rams' complete list of selections as they prepare to move forward in the offseason.

Round 2, No. 46: Terrance Ferguson, TE, Oregon

Round 3, No. 90: Josaiah Stewart, LB, Michigan

Round 4, No. 117: Jarquez Hunter, RB, Auburn

Round 5, No. 148: Ty Hamilton, DT, Ohio State

Round 5, No. 172: Chris Paul Jr, LB, Ole Miss

Round 7, No. 242: Konata Mumpfield, WR, Pittsburgh

It will be interesting to see how things ultimately play out in 2025 as the Rams look to build upon a 10-7 2024 record that saw them finish atop the NFC West.
