The Rams’ draft position won’t be fully finalized until their playoff run is done. But they’ve got another first-round pick in 2026 courtesy of the Falcons, and that one is finalized now that the regular season is done.
Atlanta finished the season strong, with four consecutive wins, including a Week 17 Monday Night Football victory over the Rams. Those wins have bumped the pick the Rams will receive from the Falcons down to No. 13.
The Falcons’ 2026 first-round pick came to the Rams thanks to a 2025 draft-day trade that allowed Atlanta to trade back into the first round and double up on edge rushers. After selecting Georgia EDGE Jalon Walker at No. 15, the Falcons swapped with the Rams to take James Pearce Jr. out of Tennessee. The Rams received the 2026 first-round pick, plus Atlanta’s 2025 second-round pick and a 2025 seventh-round pick. In return, they sent the Falcons the Rams’ 26th overall pick in 2025, which they used to select Pearce, and the 101st overall pick.
As of right now, the Rams are set to pick at No. 29 as well, but that hopefully won’t be finalized until February.
