Pats get Rams #1 pick for WR Cooks … Updated … The 6th round pick New England gets from the LA Rams to complete the deal for WR Brandin Cooks is being reported as the 198th selection. New England has acquired the LA Rams first round pick (#23) at the 2018 draft for WR Brandin Cooks. The Rams will also get a 4th round pick (#136) from the Patriots, while New England gets an undisclosed 6th rounder from the Rams. The Patriots acquired Cooks from New Orleans last year, but he is only under contract through the 2018 season. Meanwhile, in acquiring Cooks the Rams get a legitimate #1 receiver for emerging QB Jared Goff. Indeed, there had been speculation that the Rams had some interest in Giants’ WR Odell Beckham when rumors surfaced that he might be available.
