How the Sam Bradford trade helped the Rams land Jared Goff

Published May. 23, 2016 2:14 p.m. ET

Heading into the 2015 NFL season, the Rams didn't set out to trade quarterback Sam Bradford, according to Rams general manager Les Snead, who appeared recently on the Peter Schrager podcast.

Instead, Snead said the Rams' intention was to explore a restructuring of the contract that would pay Bradford about $13 million, until Snead said "deleting [Bradford] is not the answer," and trade rumors started swirling.

But we do know who that No. 45 pick turned into for the Titans: 2015 Heisman Trophy winner Derrick Henry, running back out of Alabama, who will forever be linked to Goff along with the to-be-determined first-rounder in 2017.
