Rams Trade for Jaguars' Brian Thomas Jr.

0:00On April 5th, the Los Angeles Rams crushed it last season with the top offense in the league thanks to Matthew Stafford bawling out in a killer duo of Puka Nakua and Devonte Adams at White Receiver. Nakua led the NFL with 129 catches for 1,715 yards and 10 scores, while Adams topped the charts in. Receiving touchdowns with 14. Now heading into the 2026 draft, the Rams won a third weapon to keep Stafford elite in win now mode. Analyst Gary Davenport floats a bold trade idea. Rams snag Jaguar Speedster Brian Thomas Jr. by sending their 2026 first round pick. At number 13, a third rounder at 93 and a 2027 fourth. In return, they get Thomas plus Jacksonville's fourth rounder at 124. It echoes GMless needs genius Stafford deal that won a Super Bowl. Fans and execs see the fit, especially with Adams turning 34 soon and missing games last year.

1:01Plus some off-field noise around Nakua. Thomas on a cheap rookie deal with a 2.1 million cap hit this year could form the scariest trio in football, setting Stafford up for another MVP run. League Buzz is heating up despite Jaguar's GM, James Gladstone calling trade talk fake news. One exec told the Athletic they wouldn't blink if Thomas moves during draft week and the Rams under Sneed love wheeling and dealing with X-Rams ties. Like Gladstone, Sneed's track record screams aggressive, but coughing up a first for a guy off a down year might sting. Still, if they pull it off, Stafford's got the best targets in the game, pushing L.A. right back to title contention.
