Isaiah Foskey ( Notre Dame), BJ Ojulari ( LSU), or Felix Anudike-Uzomah ( Kansas State) could be very well be around at #37.įree agency is a mixed bag, Would/could the Rams try to revitalize a former first round pick? Should L.A., on a 1 year show-me pact, consider under-achievers Marcus Davenport, and Clelin Farrell, aging Melvin Ingram, or even a second go-round with Dante Fowler? I wouldn’t lean that way, even at at a discount. Using my own draft board as a point of reference, top prospects Nolan Smith (Georgia). Second, In the draft, spend a top pick on an edge.

Even as a rotational player and special teamer, his modest salary is well-earned. His versatility and size combination is rare. There is potential amongst the unit, but each has his limitations and needs much grooming. as UDFA’s, excepting Hardy who garnered a 7th round berth. Is he braced for a comeback, or on the downhill side? All the other candidates have very limited experience and all came to L.A. He has reportedly played the last two seasons with season-long injuries and will 31 next season. Leonard Floyd, even at his high price, is a solid defender. The Rams first selection in the draft has the potential to be a difference maker, particularly in two positions.

Leonard Floyd, Daniel Hardy, Keir Thomas, Brayden Thomas, and Zach VanValkenberg Free agents Can the Rams build an offensive line around Rob Havenstein? Photo by Scott Taetsch/Getty Images Edge Under contract If the the Rams do decide to select a big guy early, I would offer up Darnell Wright, tackle from Tennessee in the third round. As for the draft, it just isn’t in the Rams history under the Snead/McVay tenure to take a lineman early. Nate Davis, Ben Powers, or Dalton Risner are three I like, to start the conversation. Not necessarily a big swing, just a solid starter-grade player. The move: Grab an interior lineman in free agency. Putting players on the field because “they know the system” is an inferior way to set a lineup at this level of play. was under the impression that they could just plug in any player on the line and things would work themselves out, with disastrous results. The 2022 injury situation should teach the Rams an important lesson, every individual spot on the active roster and practice squad is important. Pircher is probably around just for the public relations and doesn’t count against the roster. Stay focused on bringing in real competition. Between free agency, the draft, and UDFA’s, five solid additions should be found.

That makes 10 players and training camp needs 15, so hopefully L.A. As far their own free agents, bring back Coleman Shelton and Chandler Brewer at the minimum salary. The Rams will likely bring back all those under contract. Joseph Noteboom, Rob Havenstein, Brian Allen, Logan Bruss, Tremayne Anchrum, Alaric Jackson, AJ Arcuri, Zachary Thomas, and Max Pircher Free agentsĬoleman Shelton (UFA), Oday Aboushi (UFA), Ty Nsekhe (UFA), Matt Skura (UFA), David Edwards (UFA), and Chandler Brewer (RFA) will have to dig for value in the draft and free agency. The Rams don’t have any big bills to throw around amongst their draft capital, and although they’re not exactly holding chump change, L.A. changes/wants/needs will be magnified.īefore any of those possible changes actually take place, it seems a good time to have a look at the current Rams roster and try to identify some moves that could bolster the team. The coaching staff is under assault from opposition interviews and the bottom line is that if any of the major characters do indeed make a move, the L.A. Rumors and possibilities abound, both on incoming players and on outgoing players, as well. Call it what you will, the Los Angeles Rams are in for extensive changes this off season.
