LA Rams last 2020 NFL Draft – 2020 Mock Draft 5.0

Round 3 – TRADE

When the LA Rams look at the players on the board, nobody excites them. But their phone rings and the Green Bay Packers propose a trade that the Rams cannot refuse. We have our first Rams’ trade when the Rams arrive at round 3, pick 84. TRADE Green Bay Packers trade picks 94 (3rd) 136 (4th) and 192 (6th) for Rams pick 84.  Green Bay picks TE Adam Trautman from Dayton

The LA Rams wanted to multiply picks in this draft, and quickly find an opportunity to do so. After speaking to the Packers over trading for one of the two tight ends on the LA Rams roster, the Green Bay Packers ultimately decide to draft their own. But to do so, they agree to a nice trade with the Rams.

The Packers choose Dayton’s tight end, Adam Trautman, with the 84th pick of the 2020 NFL Draft. At 6-foot-5 and 255-pounds, the Packers like his size. But they like his 11 starts for 916 yards receiving and 14 touchdowns even more.

He’s a huge target for QB Aaron Rodgers, and in a shallow tight end class, the Packers simply trade up to get their guy.  That means the Rams grab two more valuable picks and drop just ten spots to do so. Will the Rams pick at 94, or trade back once more?
