Rams awarded one special compensatory pick in the 2025 NFL Draft

WOODLAND HILLS, Calif. – The Rams have been awarded one special compensatory pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, the league announce Tuesday.

It will be in the third round, No. 101 overall.

That selection was awarded via a 2020 amendment to the Collective Bargaining Agreement promoting equal employment opportunities and an inclusive workforce within NFL clubs. As part of that amendment, if one minority employee gets hired as a head coach or primary football executive (general manager) by a new club, the employee's prior club receives a special compensatory third-round pick in each of the next two drafts.

So, this is the second of those two special compensatory third-round picks the Rams received via former defensive coordinator Raheem Morris being hired as head coach of the Atlanta Falcons last year.

Los Angeles was not awarded any regular compensatory picks awarded through the league's formula which weighs the number of players a team lost via free agency versus the number of free agents it signed. That formula also takes a player's salary, playing time and postseason honors into consideration.

The 2025 NFL Draft will be held April 24-26 in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
