The Rams relocated from St. Louis back to Los Angeles and their ready to start the season off with a bang.  In a blockbuster trade, the Rams acquired the No. 1 overall draft pick from the Tennessee Titans.

Tennessee will send the top selection along with its fourth- (No. 113) and sixth-round (No. 177) picks this year to the Rams in exchange for Los Angeles’ first-round pick (No. 15), two second-round selections (Nos. 43 and 45) and a third-round pick (No. 76) in 2016. The Titans also will get the Rams’ first- and third-round picks in 2017.

With that trade, the Rams will have the ability to draft the quarterback of their choice.

“Our philosophy has always been to build through the draft,” Rams general manager Les Snead said in a statement. “This trade is a reflection of that goal and [owner Stan] Kroenke’s dedication to assembling a winning team on the field.”

The Titans now own nine selections in the 2016 draft, including six of the top 76 picks in the draft.

This marks the seventh trade involving the No. 1 overall pick since 1990 and the first since 2004, when theSan Diego Chargers selected Eli Manning and traded his rights to the New York Giants.

Eli worked out well, winning the Giants two championships.  The Rams are hoping for that kind of result
