For the second time in seven years, the Los Angeles Rams used the first overall pick in the NFL draft on a quarterback, kicking off Thursday's festivities by selecting California's Jared Goff. Goff is the 22nd quarterback taken with the first overall pick in the common draft era (since 1967) and the first Cal quarterback to land in the first round since the Green Bay Packers took Aaron Rodgers at No. 24 in 2005. In a interview with ESPN before the pick was announced, Goff said he was a San Francisco 49ers fan growing up and would like to wear the No. 16 with the Rams in honor of Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Montana. Goff also wore the number at California. The Rams' choice comes after the the team, which is returning to Los Angeles this season after relocating from St. Louis, traded two first-, two second- and two third-round picks to the Tennessee Titans to move from No. 15 to No. 1. The Rams also received fourth- and sixth-round picks this year from Tennessee. After moving up for the first pick, the Rams remained tight-lipped about their preference between Goff and North Dakota State's Carson Wentz with coach Jeff Fisher repeatedly saying that he didn't want to tip the pick and deny the chosen player the chance to get the phone call from the team telling him he's the guy. The Rams also used the first pick on quarterback Sam Bradford in 2010. He played for the team through 2014 and was traded to Philadelphia in 2015 for Nick Foles and a second-round pick after a pair of season-ending knee injuries. - See more at: http://espn.go.com/nfl/draft2016/st...eles-rams-select-jared-goff-no-1-overall-pick
