While they could use a backup quarterback, for example, it's not such a pressing issue that they have to use their early picks on that position. But, there is a strong likelihood the Rams will go for a wide receiver with the 13th pick in the draft, barring a star defensive player falling down the board. Further down the board, the Rams are linked to a very interesting prospect.

ESPN's Matt Miller is linking the Rams to the son of Philadelphia Eagles All-Pro linebacker Jeremiah Trotter in Missouri's Josiah Trotter, who, just like his father and older brother Jeremiah Trotter Jr. , is a linebacker. Rams linked to son of Eagles All-Pro LB "With receiver seeming like an obvious pick at No.

13, linebacker is the most likely direction in Round 2, especially if Josiah Trotter (Missouri) is available," Miller writes. The Rams could use some linebacker help this offseason, and the draft is a great opportunity to add some help at the position. While Sonny Styles isn't likely to make it to the 13th pick, Trotter has a decent chance to make it to 61st overall in Round 2 for the Rams.
