The 2024-2025 Los Angeles Rams Draft and FA Thread.

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

Another bigass decent Player is now right across the Hall at SoFi Stadium. Former Eagles right guard Mekhi Becton has signed with the Los Angeles Chargers in free agency.

If we needed a guard I'd be annoyed that we missed out on him, but I wouldn't want to have to depend on him as a tackle.

 

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

Nobody wants to have their sports franchises in San Diego apparently.

If the Chargers were able to get a new stadium in SD, I think they would've done really well there. The whole deal where we HAD to offer other teams a free home stadium was a sick joke. The other owners were jealous over the stadium Kroenke was about to build would put the other venues to shame.

 

[Retroram52]

Yep, Kroneke built a billion dollar stadium in LA that the Spanos family could not match in San Diego.

Looks like another reason the Rams had to move Kupp was Dotson was due an $8.5 million signing bonus the same day and Dotson also gets an increase his yearly salary, apparently.

Kevin Dotson gets his guarantee

The Rams guard signed a lucrative contract in 2024

This was expected as the Rams re-signed the midget running back extraordinaire, Ronnie Rivers.

BTW, the ShitferBrains Twins have not learned anything. The Rams have become quite high on the list of FA spenders, AGAIN and now they are talking about extending Kyren Williams with another one of those huge contracts that got them into trouble with so many players most recently with Cooper Kupp. Give these two a big wad of cash and they go apeshit nuts and they are doing it again this year.

So much for that... Juszczyk signed back with the Filthy Whiners.

What about McVay's offense screams FB usage? I would be surprised if they even considered him.

I'm not a big fan of signing running backs to big extensions, especially since they have the shortest shelf life of any position in the league due to the beatings they take every week. I'd say use that money for something else and just draft another one.

 

[Retroram52]

I have been stating this since Adams signed. Apparently several other pundits are stating the same thing.

The Rams have spent a lot of money this offseason, but did they overpay?

I was responding to Retro's post. He had mentioned that an analyst said we should sign him.

This mock is very close to nailing down some great bigass, badass, talent!! There is one major flaw: There is not one suggested ILB!!!! Which we desparately need!!! NOT ONE!! What the hell is wrong with these people? We don't need another OLB/EDGE and if they are going to take a WR, take the kid from Iowa State, Jayden Higgins. Good grief!!

In our latest mock draft, the Rams land a versatile defender who tested off the charts at the 2025 NFL combine

That Emmanwori kid is a real badass Safety. He is big AND fast. He would be an excellent selection at the 26th pick.

 

[Retroram52]

This ILB is probably the top of the list in the First Round. We could pick Schlessinger later and then take Emmanwori with the 26th pick. The rest of this mock just sucks.

Not a bad draft, but taking a punter in round six doesn't make much sense.

 

[Retroram52]

Typical. These two out-of-control douchebags simply can't get out of their own way fast enough.

Did Rams re-unite with the wrong center?

I am aware. And you were upset they wouldn't, but it shouldn't be a surprise. They don't use a big back, let alone a fullback.

Drafting punters is pretty pointless IMO. Even placekickers would really have to impress to be earn a draft slot.

ILB in the 1st might be rich, but I agree on S/CB being a target.

 

[Retroram52]

Both wasted draft picks.
