    Rams trade up for Ohio State DT Ty Hamilton in 5th round of NFL draft
    • April 26, 2025

    The Rams made their second trade-up of the third day of the NFL draft to select Ohio State defensive tackle Ty Hamilton with the 148th overall pick in the fifth round.

    The Rams sent their 2026 fourth-round pick to the Chicago Bears to move up from 195th overall in the sixth round to move up to No. 148.

    At 6-foot-3 and 299 pounds, Hamilton is one of the strongest prospects in the draft. He benched 35 reps of 225 pounds at Ohio State’s pro day, two more than any other prospect at the NFL combine.

    Hamilton missed only nine tackles in his career at Ohio State while recording seven sacks and 46 total pressures. His presence as a run stopper helps the Rams mitigate the loss of Bobby Brown III in free agency while adding to a defensive tackle room that includes free-agent pickup Poona Ford and second-year tackle Tyler Davis.
