So long quarterbacks? New draft order following Rams trade to No. 1

In a move that will certainly
throw everyone's mock drafts into chaos, the NFC West rival Los Angeles Rams have
moved into the number one spot in this month's NFL Draft following a trade with the Tennessee Titans.
The Rams
give up their first-round pick (15th overall), two second round picks, a third round pick, and first and third round picks next year to the Titans, per the
Los Angeles Times. The Rams get the Titans' number one overall, a fourth round pick, and a sixth round pick this year.
The trade certainly changes the landscape of the draft. Likely gone will be the two top quarterback prospects in Jared Goff and Carson Wentz to the Rams and the Cleveland Browns – not necessarily in that order.
NFL Media's Albert Breer reports the Rams already have conducted on-campus workouts with both quarterbacks.
What this does mean is that a solid non-quarterback prospect may fall to the San Francisco 49ers' pick at seventh overall.
Here is the new updated draft order in the first round.
- Rams (From Titans)
- Browns
- Chargers
- Cowboys
- Jaguars
- Ravens
- 49ers
- Eagles (From Dolphins)
- Buccaneers
- Giants
- Bears
- Saints
- Dolphins (From Eagles)
- Raiders
- Titans (From Rams)
- Lions
- Falcons
- Colts
- Bills
- Jets
- Redskins
- Texans
- Vikings
- Bengals
- Steelers
- Seahawks
- Packers
- Chiefs
- Cardinals
- Panthers
- Broncos

Sam Darnold on role with 49ers: "As long as we're winning games, that's the only thing that matters"
Sam Darnold is the newest San Francisco 49ers quarterback. He joins a quarterback room that includes third-year passer Trey Lance and second-year player Brock Purdy. The Niners are Darnold's third NFL team since the New York Jets made him the No. 3 overall pick in 2018. He spent the last two seasons with the Carolina Panthers, appearing in 18 games while starting 17.
Darnold felt that signing with the 49ers was an easy decision. He's excited about the opportunity to work with head coach and play-caller Kyle Shanahan and the other 49ers coaches.
The quarterback steps into a great situation, too. San Francisco undoubtedly has the most talented roster he has ever been a part of.

5 things to know about new 49ers DL Clelin Ferrell
Clelin Ferrell became the latest addition to the San Francisco 49ers on Wednesday, agreeing to terms to a one-year contract shortly before the official start of NFL free agency at 4 p.m. ET.
Ferrell (6-4, 265) comes to the 49ers after four seasons with the Raiders, who selected him with the fourth overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. Ferrell's time with the Raiders was disappointing based on what was expected from him coming into the NFL, but he'll now have a chance to become the latest in a line of defensive linemen who were able to jumpstart their career with a stint in San Francisco.

5 things to know about new 49ers CB Isaiah Oliver
The 49ers added some help to their secondary on Wednesday with the signing of Isaiah Oliver, who comes to San Francisco after spending his first five NFL seasons with the Atlanta Falcons.
Oliver, 26, brings a good amount of experience to the 49ers and a versatility that is reminiscent of former 49ers defensive back Jimmie Ward. But chances are, given Oliver's history, that he'll primarily get a look at the nickel spot, which is where Ward filled in during the 2022 season.
Here are some things to know about Oliver as he begins his time with the 49ers.
He's versatile, but nickel seems to be his fit

5 things to know about new 49ers DB Myles Hartsfield
The 49ers added depth to their defensive back room Saturday with the signing of former Carolina Panthers cornerback/safety Myles Hartsfield, who will be joining the team on a one-year deal.
Hartsfield (5-11, 210) played in 41 games with the Panthers after joining the team as an undrafted rookie out of Ole Miss in 2020. He played in 16 games as a rookie, then moved into the starting lineup in 2021 after missing time early in the season due to a wrist injury. Hartsfield totaled 45 tackles, one sack and four passes defensed in 10 games (nine starts) in 2021, then started 10 of 15 games in 2022 and made 59 tackles, one forced fumble, and two passes defensed.
