LA Rams future draft picks: 2022 NFL Draft and beyond
By Bret Stuter
2024 and 2025 NFL Draft
From this point beyond the 2023 NFL Draft, the LA Rams have not traded nor acquired any NFL Draft picks via trade, transactions, or awarding of compensatory draft picks. That makes 2024 and beyond rather simple to calculate because the team merely possesses their annual allotment of draft picks in each subsequent year going forward.
Round 1 – The Rams hold their first-round pick.
Round 2– The Rams hold their second-round pick.
Round 3 – The Rams hold their third-round pick.
Round 4 – The Rams hold their fourth-round pick
Round 5 – The Rams hold their fifth-round pick.
Round 6 -The Rams hold their sixth-round pick.
Round 6 – The Rams have obtained the Denver Broncos-sixth round pick
Round 7 – The Rams have traded away their seventh-round pick. (see above)
COMPENSATORY PICKS: Unable to determine at this time
The final estimated tally is as follows: first round – 1 (one), second round – 1 (one), third round – 1 (one), fourth-round – 1 (one), fifth-round – 1 (one), sixth-round – 2 (two), seventh-round – 0 (none). Total – 7 (seven)
The final tally for the LA Rams 2024 NFL Draft right now stands at seven. That could increase as projections become available for the Rams awarded compensatory draft picks for the 2024 NFL Draft.
2025 NFL Draft
As stated previously, there are no transactions on record that will impact the LA Rams 2025 NFL Draft. The team currently holds just seven draft picks as originally allotted for the 2025 NFL Draft.
Round 1 – The Rams hold their first-round pick.
Round 2– The Rams hold their second-round pick.
Round 3 – The Rams hold their third-round pick.
Round 4 – The Rams hold their fourth-round pick
Round 5 – The Rams hold their fifth-round pick.
Round 6 -The Rams hold their sixth-round pick.
Round 7 – The Rams hold their seventh-round pick.
COMPENSATORY PICKS: Unable to determine at this time
The LA Rams currently project to have their initial first-round pick under the Sean McVay era in 2024. Project is the operative word, as the Rams have shown no affection for that most valued of draft picks in the past, and if a game-changing veteran appears on the trade block, the Rams have shown no hesitation to trade first-round picks for a deserving player.
With today’s news, the Rams front office is already making moves to improve their draft position in a draft that is three years away. While you may just shrug your shoulders and believe it’s all just random chance, the Rams personnel and draft offices have shown the ability to project solid draft classes in the past.
Will the 2024 NFL Draft be something special? Or was 2024 chosen because it was the first year where the LA Rams had a seventh-round pick to exchange for the Denver Broncos sixth-round pick?
Anything goes.
