The Rams may have lost on Sunday, but so did the Redskins, which only means that the Rams draft picks just got a little better. Even if the Rams do lose games the rest of the season, there really is no reason to be upset about it as their picks will only get better. Here’s what the draft order looks like after week 13.

1. Houston Texans 2-10

2. Jacksonville Jaguars 3-9

3. St. Louis Rams( via WAS) 3-9

4. Atlanta Falcons 3-9

5. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 3-9

6. Minnesota Vikings 3-8-1

7. Cleveland Browns 4-8

8. Oakland Raiders 4-8

9. Buffalo Bills 4-8

10. Pittsburgh Steelers 5-7

11. Tennessee Titans 5-7

12. New York Jets 5-7

13. San Diego Chargers 5-7

14. New York Giants 5-7

15. St. Louis Rams 5-7

16. Green Bay Packers 5-6-1

17. Chicago Bears 6-6

18. Baltimore Ravens 6-6

19.  Miami Dolphins 6-6

20. Detroit Lions 7-5

21. Philadelphia Eagles 7-5

22. Dallas Cowboys 7-5

23. Arizona Cardinals 7-5

24. Cincinnati Bengals 8-4

25. Cleveland Browns(via IND) 8-4

26. San Francisco 49ers 8-4

27. Kansas City Chiefs 9-3

28. New England Patriots 9-3

29. Carolina Panthers 9-3

30. New Orleans Saints 9-3

31. Denver Broncos 10-2

32. Seattle Seahawks 11-1

That so far is the current draft order although this is all but set in stone as teams will move around a spot here and there until the end of the season.

As of right now the Rams hold the third and 15th picks in next years draft and it is my guess that they will try to trade out of that spot, but if they can’t, don’t be surprised if they go with the OT Jake Matthews or OLB Anthony Barr. If the Rams can trade back they would probably end up taking DT Louis Nix III, but could possibly take WR Marquise Lee or WR Sammy Watkins.

At 15 the Rams would look at taking S Ha-Ha Clinton-Dix, but if he wasn’t available expect them to trade down and go after one of the top CBs.

The Rams are sitting pretty good right now going into April’s drafts, the Rams picks may change slightly, like within a couple picks, but nothing too drastic. The future looks very bright for this team, it won’t be long before they are contenders.
