Rams have 9th-most draft capital in NFL this year

Unlike in recent years, the Los Angeles Rams are equipped with a first-round pick in 2024. They’ve still come away with some impressive draft classes without first-rounders, but they have a chance to grab a top prospect this year with the No. 19 overall selection.

In addition to a first-round pick, the Rams have 10 other selections on Day 2 and 3. Five of those are compensatory selections, which were just handed out on Friday. Tankathon ranked every team based on its draft capital this year, applying point values to each selection, and the Rams have the ninth-most in the NFL.

Their 11 picks are worth 890.4 points, slightly ahead of the 10th-ranked Eagles (868.2). The Cardinals have the most capital in the NFL (1,468.9 points), followed by the Commanders (1,236.6) and Bears (1,089.5). The Browns have by far the least amount of capital with only five picks worth 377.8 points.

The Rams often love to trade down and accumulate pick as they did in 2023 when they finished with 14 selections, but with all the capital they have this year, they could look to move up either in the first round or later in the draft. They have the firepower to do so thanks to those five compensatory picks.
