Rams' third-round pick that belongs to Titans is No. 100

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- It’s no surprise the Los Angeles Rams were awarded a third-round compensatory draft pick, 100th overall.

They lost Nick Fairley, Janoris Jenkins and Rodney McLeod as free agents last season.

That pick now belongs to the Tennessee Titans, though, as part of the deal that sent the No. 1 pick to the Rams last season.

Had the Rams not gotten the compensatory pick in the third round, the Titans would have received Los Angeles’ regular third-rounder.

In last season's blockbuster, Tennessee sent the top selection along with its fourth-round (No. 113) and sixth-round (No. 177) picks in 2016 to the Rams.

The Rams picked Cal quarterback Jared Goff with the top pick, traded 113 and used 177 on South Carolina State tight end Temarrick Hemingway.

The Titans got Los Angeles' first-round pick (No. 15), two second-round selections (Nos. 43 and 45) and a third-round pick (No. 76) in 2016 in addition to the No. 5 pick this year plus the compensatory third-rounder.

In 2016, the Titans traded No. 15 and No. 76 as part of a package to move up to No. 8 and draft right tackle Jack Conklin, who was an All-Pro as a rookie.

They used No. 43 on Penn State defensive lineman Austin Johnson and No. 45 on Heisman Trophy-winning Alabama running back Derrick Henry.
