Berkeley quarterback Jared Goff drafted first for Rams

The first pick of the 2016 NFL draft was Berkeley’s own quarterback Jared Goff. The junior was drafted for the Los Angeles Rams Thursday evening.

Last season, he had 43 touchdowns with 13 interceptions.

Goff told the LA Times: “I felt very comfortable with their whole staff. I’m very excited for it.”

The Rams chose Goff over North Dakota State’s Carson Wentz, who was the second draft pick.
