Rams trade up again, take guard
The Rams really liked Oregon State Roy Schuening, so they made another trade-up to get him.
Finally the Rams took a player that was rated higher than he actually went. Schuening looks like a great pick, a collegiate power blocker who could step in as a rookie if injuries struck.
“I know Mike Riley at Oregon State,” Rams personnel czar Billy Devaney said. “I know the offensive line coach there. That factored into the evaluation.
“They ran the ball, they threw the ball — he was exposed to a lot at Oregon State.”
After this deal, the Rams won’t pick again until the seventh round. Fans should feel free to go mow their lawns and check the draft tracker later this afternoon.


So, maybe that’s why the Rams traded out of the 6th round. They seem to be only making good picks in the odd rounds. I think the 2nd and 4th rounds were not great picks, but the 1st, 3rd, and the 5th look good, so far. Maybe the other two will prove me wrong.
