Rams started Friday off with a bang by trading up thirteen slots to take Braden Fiske
There was plenty of talk about the Los Angeles Rams moving up early in the first round on Thursday night. Instead, they made on splash to kickoff day two on Friday evening by trading up to 39 overall with the Carolina Panthers to select Florida State DT Braden Fiske.
Twitter reacted to LA’s big move and selection. Did the Rams maybe give up too much to get their guy?
Rams got fleeced by Panthers in trade?
LA gave up a second round pick in 2025 draft as part of package to move up
Rams are arguably the best organization in the NFL in the past decade but this is their one flaw, they get fleeced in trades.
Usually doesn’t matter though because talent evaluation makes up for it. https://t.co/9UpHbvrJsQ

Rams got fleeced, they really traded a 2nd to move up?

Social media reacts to LA’s selection of Braden Fiske:
The Rams defensive line has Kobie Turner, Byron Young, Jared Verse and Braden Fiske.
That’s a damn good group of young studs. Les Snead is doing everything he can to fill the void left by Aaron Donald, and I’m a fan.

Braden Fiske was drafted in round 2 pick 39 in the 2024 draft class. He scored a 9.89 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 20 out of 1808 DT from 1987 to 2024. https://t.co/xlX4tzzbZS pic.twitter.com/7HtC10NjSL

Braden Fiske is so damn quick for his size. Some dudes are just different. So much second round talent.#Rams

Braden Fiske is an electric mover at damn near 300 pounds.

The Rams go pair Jared Verse with Braden Fiske from FSU in the second round.
I LOVE this pick!
Fiske dominated at the Combine in testing. Super quick off the ball. He and Kobie Turner are going to be an awesome tandem.

Man the @RamsNFL make a big time move to get Braden Fiske who is one of the freakiest athletes u will ever see for 292lbs. His get off is elite. His twitch is elite. His anchor need to get better. But he is gonna fuck a lot of plays up!!

Braden Fiske made a huge impact on the FSU defense. So relentless and explosive. Took over the ACC Title Game. Just dominated that game for the Noles with a struggling offense. I think this was a good get for the Rams.

…don’t really love this. Nothing to do with the player.
More timing and structure. https://t.co/nTFo4RueYq

Braden Fiske and Jared Verse reuniting in LA is a beautiful thing. pic.twitter.com/c2V8q04X2D

Get ready to see this. A lot. How cool for Jared Verse that he gets to land in LA, and immediately the Rams reunite him with his monster of a teammate in Braden Fiske.#brothers pic.twitter.com/GdCdBErXgK
