NFL draft: Rams trade up, take Florida State DT Braden Fiske in 2nd round
HERMOSA BEACH — The Rams were not satisfied with one member of the Florida State defense after selecting Jared Verse in the first round on Thursday. To open the second day of the NFL draft, the Rams traded up to take Seminole defensive tackle Braden Fiske with the 39th overall pick in the second round.
To move up 13 spots from No. 52, the Rams traded a 2024 fifth-round pick (No. 155) and their 2025 second-round selection to the Carolina Panthers.
Fiske, 24, is a 6-foot-4, 292-pound prospect who started his career at Western Michigan before transferring to Florida State for his senior season. He earned third-team AP All-American honors, starting 13 games with 9 tackles for loss and six sacks.
He will team back up with Verse, the FSU outside linebacker whom the Rams selected with the 19th overall pick on Thursday, and will slide in next to second-year tackle Kobie Turner as the Rams turn the page on the Aaron Donald era following the tackle’s retirement last month.
