If the Rams trade down from No. 13, they could target one of these three players in the first round.

The Los Angeles Rams currently hold the 13th pick and while most of the discussion revolves around the team potentially trading up in the 2026 NFL Draft, they could also trade back down to acquire picks after they paid a hefty price for Trent McDuffie. If the Rams do trade back, here are three unique options they could select. Keldric Faulk, EDGE, Auburn Faulk is an underrated edge rusher from Auburn who is expected to go towards the back half of the draft.

While the draft's premier pass rushers may be a bit out of range for the Rams, Faulk presents a unique option as a potential replacement for Byron Young, as Young only has one more year left on his deal. Faulk is an underrated run defender who has the ability to take games over. His relentlessness is evident and he is humming off the edge.

Also, never underestimate Les Snead's love for his alma mater. Faulk would be a great addition to the team. Kenyon Sadiq, TE, Oregon Sadiq is an amazing talent who could be both a wide receiver and tight end.

The thought process is to equip Matthew Stafford with as many unique options as possible, with Sadiq's height, speed, and overall athleticism being a critical tool to defeat both man and zone coverage. Sadiq is a player who takes advantage of space, and no one schemes up space better than Sean McVay. Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, safety, Toledo This would be a controversial selection but hear me out.
