Trade 1 of 5
Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers
San Francisco moved from No. 15 to No. 7 in the 1994 first round and used the higher pick on defensive tackle Bryant Young, while the Rams collected No. 15 plus second- and third-round selections. Wayne Gandy became a long-term starter, but Young developed into a Hall of Fame cornerstone, giving San Francisco the stronger return despite the Rams' useful volume.
Assets Received
Los Angeles Rams
- Pick 1994 1st round pick (15th overall, Wayne Gandy), 1994 2nd round pick (56th overall, Brad Ottis) and 1994 3rd round pick (100th overall, Ernest Jones)
San Francisco 49ers
- Pick 1994 1st round pick (7th overall, Bryant Young)

Trade 2 of 5
Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers
San Francisco traded linebacker Bill Romanowski to Philadelphia during the 1994 draft for the Eagles' third-round pick at No. 100 and sixth-round pick at No. 190. The 49ers immediately reused both selections in separate draft-day packages, with No. 100 helping them move up for Bryant Young and No. 190 helping them move up for Kevin Mitchell. The picks became useful transaction capital rather than direct selections.
Assets Received
San Francisco 49ers
- Pick 1994 third round pick (#100, subsequently traded to Rams in Bryant Young move-up)
- Pick 1994 sixth round pick (#190, subsequently traded to Packers in Kevin Mitchell move-up)
Philadelphia Eagles
- Player Bill Romanowski

Trade 3 of 5
Houston Texans and Los Angeles Rams
Los Angeles traded wide receiver Ben Skowronek and its 2026 seventh-round pick to Houston for the Texans' 2026 sixth-round pick on May 9, 2024. Houston waived Skowronek before the 2024 regular season, so the Rams moved a player they were reportedly prepared to release and improved their future draft position by one round without surrendering realized on-field production to the Texans.
Assets Received
Los Angeles Rams
- Pick 2026 sixth round pick (#207, later traded in Ernest Jones package)
Houston Texans
- Player Ben Skowronek
- Pick 2026 seventh round pick (#245)

Trade 4 of 5
Los Angeles Rams and Tennessee Titans
The Rams sent Ernest Jones and a 2026 sixth-round pick to Tennessee for a 2026 fifth-round pick. Tennessee then turned Jones into another return less than two months later, receiving linebacker Jerome Baker and a 2025 fourth-round pick from Seattle. That second move transformed a small pick swap into additional veteran help and meaningful draft capital, making Tennessee the clear winner of the original exchange.
Assets Received
Los Angeles Rams
- Pick 2026 5th round pick (144th overall subsequently traded, Sam Hecht)
Tennessee Titans
- Pick Ernest Jones and 2026 6th round pick (207th overall subsequently traded, Micah Morris)

Seattle Seahawks and Tennessee Titans
Seattle acquired Ernest Jones IV for Jerome Baker and a 2025 fourth-round pick, then watched Jones become a defensive centerpiece. He earned second-team All-Pro honors in 2025, helped Seattle win Super Bowl LX and remained with the club on a new contract. Tennessee still produced useful value through Gunnar Helm, but Jones' impact makes this a clear Seahawks victory.
Assets Received
Seattle Seahawks
- Player Ernest Jones
Tennessee Titans
- Player Jerome Baker
- Pick 2025 4th round pick (120th overall, Gunnar Helm)
