With their final pick in the 2021 NFL draft, the Los Angeles Rams selected edge rusher Chris Garrett out of Concordia University. That means the Rams went the entire draft without selecting a single offensive lineman, which comes as a huge surprise.

Garrett is from a Division II school but was dominant in 2019. He had 14 sacks and 20.5 tackles for a loss as an AP All-American that year, tying for the D-II lead in sacks. In those 11 games played, he had a total of seven forced fumbles.

Concordia-St. Paul did not play in 2020 due to COVID-19 concerns, so his last season in college was an outstanding one.
