The Facts: The Rams are doing everything they can to make the NFL draft suspenseful. After trading up to the first overall pick today, different sources within the Rams are saying different things to different reporters about whether they plan to draft North Dakota State quarterback Carson Wentz or Cal's Goff. The initial reports said the Rams were leaning toward Wentz, but Adam Schefter of ESPN is now reporting that the Rams are leaning toward Goff.
Diehards Line:
As PFT suggests, it seems unlikely that the Rams would trade up to the first overall pick before deciding which quarterback they want to take. In fact, if they viewed Wentz and Goff as equals, why even trade ahead of the Browns -- the team most likely to draft a QB -- if it didn't matter. It’s more likely that the Rams know who they’re taking but have decided to wait until draft day to announce it. In the meantime, expect a constant flow of Wentz vs. Goff speculation leading all the way up until the first pick is made on Aug. 28.
