The Rams don't have another (serious) bidder. It's the Redskins vs. time.
I think the Seahawks could get involved late, but the market price of the no. 2 pick will be fairly well known if they do.
Ultimately, the Rams need the Redskins to be involved because they don't have any other serious offers right now that would allow them to stay in the top 8 and pick an elite talent in this draft. It makes total sense for the Rams to move the pick to Redskins now because the bidding war in the future is so dependent on the Redskins or Browns to be involved and right now the Browns are lukewarm.
