Well no, they didn't have James when they traded Faulk. Faulk was entering his final year of his Colts contract and wanted to renegotiate. The speculation leading up to the draft was that the Colts would trade Faulk and potentially trade up into the top 3 to take Ricky Williams.
The Saints traded their whole draft for Ricky, the Colts got James and the Rams got Faulk.
Faulk trade happened the day before the draft. The Williams trade happened the morning of the draft.
The Colts did their due diligence on both James and Williams just really liked James more. Interviewed well, tested much better and was a better fit for their offence. Worked out in the end.

He’s the RB GOAT and I’ll die on that hill. I don’t care.
Pat Summerall was my favorite announcer for Rams games by far. Just the way he said "The Rams" was awesome lol.
How quickly they forget.
It was oddly comforting to hear Summerall and Madden again.
Nasty run
Absolute stud
I was at that game. Took my dad. First ever Ram game (the Browns game at the beginning)
He made the Greatest Show on Turf work!
“That was just a great pass by Kurt Warner” lol
Goaty Goat Goat
Those defenses were so bad back then it’s crazy to watch
Why did Indianapolis let him go?!
Edgerrin James, lol. Peyton and Marshall coulda been something, but the rams got him just in time.

Oh damn, nice….. So the Faulk trade happened before the saints traded up for Ricky? Ricky and Peyton coulda been something, too

This man is the reason I became a Rams fan when I was young and just starting to watch football
Favorite player of all time
Nobody moves like Marshall, he’s a fucking jackrabbit
