The Los Angeles Rams pulled off a blockbuster trade with the Kansas City Chiefs for cornerback Trent McDuffie, and the deal cost Los Angeles quite a bit of draft capital, including a first-round pick.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Rams are sending a whopping four draft picks in total to Kansas City. The haul for the Chiefs is as follows:
Chiefs get: 2026 first-round pick (No. 29), 2026 fifth-round pick, 2026 sixth-round pick, 2027 third-round pick.
Rams get: CB Trent McDuffie.
Rams' 2026 NFL draft picks
With this trade, the Rams are now slated to have seven picks in the 2026 NFL draft. They are as follows, according to Tankathon:
Round 1, Pick 13 (via ATL)
Round 2
Round 3
Round 6 (Own or via HOU)
Round 7 (via BAL)
Round 7 (projected comp pick)
Round 7 (projected comp pick)
The uncertainty with that sixth-round pick is a result of the Rams having two.
It isn't clear yet if they are sending the Chiefs their own sixth-rounder or the one they acquired from the Houston Texans in the Ben Skowronek trade.
Nevertheless, the "F them picks" strategy of Les Snead is alive and well, and understandably so, as the Rams are all-in on a Super Bowl in 2026.
As far as the seventh-round picks are concerned, two of them are projected comp picks due to the departures of wide receiver DeMarcus Robinson and linebacker Christian Rozeboom.
The other seventh-round pick comes from the Baltimore Ravens via the Tre'Davious White trade.
