Round 6 Pick 1: TE Darion Griswold (Arkansas State)

The Los Angeles Rams don’t have a fifth-round pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, because they used it in the supplemental draft last year. They also don’t have any seventh-round picks, so as it stands, there two picks in the sixth round will be their final picks of the draft in 2016.

The Rams released Jared Cook before free agency, which means that they need to add another tight end in the draft. Darion Griswold has been turning a lot of heads during the pre-draft workouts and at the Senior Bowl. He can catch and his huge size is optimal in the blocking game.

Round 6 Pick 2: WR Demarcus Ayers (Houston)

Demarcus Ayers might be small, but he is quick and could be a huge steal in a later round if he’s put on special teams. While the Rams already have Tavon Austin, adding another quick wide receiver like Ayers, who can be dynamic at times, would really give them some dangerous weapons on the football field at once.

It would really help out their No. 1 pick at the quarterback spot and they could have a young core to build around for the future.
