6’1, 327 lbs.
===========================
Pre-Draft Analysis

Keenan is a five-year player with a stocky frame, measuring in with just 30.5-inch arms at the combine. He’s able to use that frame to keep a low center of gravity, the main component that his game is predicated around. Keenan has good functional strength to hold ground but struggles to disengage. He can take on double teams, though he is not going to consistently split them. And his powerful strike is inconsistent. With his lack of size, you would like to see Keenan create even more disruption. But he can struggle to locate the ball in the backfield when he is pushing the pocket or playing his gap. Keenan also has average burst in pursuit, which can cause issues for him closing space in the backfield. — Scouts Inc.

I don’t understand what that description means by “lack of size.” A person who weighs in at 327lbs is not usually lacking in size, not even if they’re a nose tackle in the NFL. He does have noticeably short arms though. I like it when the Rams draft DTs though. I hope he sticks around and becomes a space eater.

I thought the Rams had 3 Seventh Round picks? I thot they got two comp picks in the 7th rd. I guess not?

They traded the two comp picks at the end of the draft to move up in the sixth round to get the wide receiver they wanted.

Given two wide receivers were picked before their old position, itmay have been the only way they could get the one they wanted.

The Los Angeles Rams made the decision to trade up in the NFL draft on Saturday, after doing so twice last year. They moved up to the 197th selection, adding Miami Hurricanes wide receiver CJ Daniels.

See, this just PROVES they botched this draft. They could have gotten their future Hall Of Fame franchise QB with that last 7th round pick. But they frittered it away for the WR.

Plus why would you need another WR when your offense starts 6 TEs, including at qb.
