REPORT: Surprise NFC Contender Is Suddenly Looking To Trade Up Into Top 10 At NFL Draft, And Everyone’s Wondering Why

An NFC contender is reportedly trying to acquire a top-10 selection in the 2024 NFL Draft that kicks off tonight.

The top 10 picks in the 2024 NFL Draft (in order from 1 to 10) belong to the Chicago Bears, Washington Commanders, New England Patriots, Arizona Cardinals, Los Angeles Chargers, New York Giants, Tennessee Titans, Atlanta Falcons, Chicago and the New York Jets.

According to a report from Dianna Russini of The Athletic, Sean McVay’s Los Angeles Rams “are calling to get into the top 10”. Los Angeles currently holds the No. 19 selection.

Incredibly, the Rams haven’t picked in round one since 2016, when they selected quarterback Jared Goff first overall after trading up via the Tennessee Titans. The ultra-aggressive Rams have gotten by with blockbuster trades for superstars like Jalen Ramsey and Matthew Stafford, but the streak of no first-round picks ends today.

It’s anybody’s guess what exactly Los Angeles is looking to do in round one. Many believe they could target Stafford’s eventual successor in a QB-heavy NFL Draft, with Michael Penix Jr. and Bo Nix potentially available there.

LA also needs to find a replacement for franchise legend Aaron Donald, who called it quits after a 10-year career. Or perhaps they’re looking to get a top offensive weapon like Malik Nabers, Rome Odunze or Brock Bowers? Stay tuned to find out.

Fans on social media seemed to have the same questions about the move as everyone else:

Expect Several Day 1 Trades At The NFL Draft

There shouldn’t be a shortage of enticing blockbuster trades that will shake up the NFL Draft tonight.

The Giants are a team to watch in the QB market, and GM Joe Schoen just might want to move up to ensure he gets his guy. The Minnesota Vikings (No. 11), Denver Broncos (No. 12) and Las Vegas Raiders (No. 13) are other clubs who may attempt to move up for a QB.

Teams have just a few more hours now to close out deals with rival GMs. Expect plenty of exciting chaos to unfold once the draft commences at 8 p.m. EST.
