NFL awards the Los Angeles Rams exactly what was predicted, and it should help balance key offseason move
The Rams were awarded two compensatory selections in the 2026 NFL Draft.
The Los Angeles Rams entered the week with just five total picks in the 2026 NFL Draft after the trade for cornerback Trent McDuffie, with just two picks after the third round of the draft.
The latest announcement from the NFL will help ease that burden some, as the NFL awarded the Rams two compensatory selections in the draft.
As expected, the Rams got two seventh-round compensatory selections, courtesy of the departures of wide receiver Demarcus Robinson and linebacker Christian Rozeboom. Now, the Rams will officially have seven picks once again in the draft.
Rams 2026 NFL Draft pick order
Before any other moves are announced, here is the Rams’ official draft order after the compensatory pick announcement:
- Round 1, Pick 13 (via ATL)
- Round 2, Pick 61
- Round 3, Pick 93
- Round 6, Pick 207 (via HOU)
- Round 7, Pick 231 (via BAL)
- Round 7, Pick 252 (compensatory)
- Round 7, Pick 253 (compensatory)
The Rams have added some solid names in the seventh round under Les Snead like wide receivers Konata Mumpfield and Ben Skowronek, edge rusher Desjuan Johnson, and safety Nick Scott. That could serve as some additional ammunition for the Rams to get trades done throughout the draft or reinforce the depth of the roster.
