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

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

I'm of the opinion that they just take best value at 26. OT need is depth for at least another season and after the top 2 TEs (projected to go before 26), there are no other 1st round worthy prospects. Most likely the best option ends up trading down and improving their day 2 picks in the process unless some considerable value drops to them. Even at CB they need an off-ball/zone player, which can usually had on day 2 or even later, although Amos could be a target at 26 (and for the Bills at 30). Not a lot of press in the Rams' defensive system. Fit over perceived ranking is key.

I think trading back would be a great idea, unless there is someone available at 26 that's just too good to pass up(like one of the two top TE's, but I doubt that will happen).

The likelihood of the trading into the Second Round and getting extra picks is continuing to gain traction. However, in order to trade back, ya have to have a partner or two willing to trade. No trade is also likely because of no partner. Gotta have somebody willing to do the trade before it happens and alot of people are just taking that part for granted.

Alot of mocks have us taking Jaxon Dart this morning.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Reeder is just familiar depth and could ultimately be replaced before the season starts. $1.1M isn't a lock to make the roster.

Until that guy retires, McVay will find a way to employ that guy.

It’s beyond ridiculous at this point because he will play Reeder over developing younger talent.

 

[Retroram52]

That is because McShitferBrains doesn't know Defense. He only knows Offense (if that) and only the RBs, WRs, and TEs. He doesn't know Offensive lineman and sometimes Defensive Lineman. He knows little about Defense and he knows nothing about ILB!! Instead of addressing the issue, he is willing to sacrifice another season to get beat up the middle like the Iggles did in both games last year.

Rams Have Spent Extensive Time With Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart

The Rams have spent extensive time with Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart during the pre-draft process, according to Pat Leonard. Leonard adds there are league sources who think Dart is a viable option for Los Angeles in the first round with the No.

Dart has removed his name from the invite to watch the Draft in Green Bay in the Green Room. Bizarre, I suppose.

Yeah, guys do that for personal reasons sometimes ( like they want to spend it with family, etc ).

Another player opted to not attend as well. Forget who it was. So, Dart isn’t the only one.

It all starts on Thursday through Saturday of this week.

Here is the defintive list of DT run-stuffers/pass rushers and this draft is loaded with OTs and DTs. I personally like Darius Alezander who is on the list as well as Cam Jackson, Deone Walker, and Warren Brinson.

Which dominating defensive linemen will the Rams add in the 2025 NFL Draft?

When it comes to the Los Angeles Rams' defensive front, plenty of pass rushers know how to get pressure on opposing quarterbacks. Even as the team parts ways wi

I like this mock alot. This is one without a trade and it addresses all of our needs.

Rams fans! You are the GM, who do you like in the draft?

This answers the question of possibilities of trade partners the Rams will need in order for the Rams to trade back into the Second Round. We need somebody to do what the Chargers did in 2020: Trade into the First Round at 23rd for a Second Rounder and a Third Rounder.

Looking at teams that could call Rams about draft day trade

History suggests there will be teams looking to trade into first round

A lot of truth to this article except for Atwell. We paid too high a price to sit this turd but that is probably what will happen.

Ugh, I hope not. However, if that makes someone ELSE trade up to get Dart, all the better.

I don't see Curl or Witherspoon losing their jobs. It's the 2nd corner spot that's open, not Spoon's.

Another boredom PFN draft, this time without any trades (nothing good offered, plus Jihaad was there lol):

1.26: Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama
3.90: Elijah Arroyo, TE, Miami
3.101: Charles Grant, OT, William & Mary
4.127: Kyle McCord, QB, Syracuse (the mainstay of my drafts lol)
6.190: Jarquez Hunter, RB, Auburn
6.195: Justin Walley, CB, Minnesota
6.201: Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins, DT, Georgia
6.202: Efton Chism, WR, Eastern Washington (going back to the well, lol)

 

[shopson67]

..and one with two short trade downs from 26 (no strong value sliders) and an offensive focus early:

2.40: Jalen Milroe, QB, Alabama
3.65: Harold Fannin Jr, TE, Bowling Green
3.67: Jack Bech, WR, TCU
3.90: Ozzy Trapilo, OT, Boston College
4.127: Smael Mondon Jr, LB, Georgia
6.190: Jabbar Muhammed, CB, Oregon
6.195: Jarquez Hunter, RB, Auburn
6.201: Tonka Hemingway, DT, South Carolina
6.202: Craig Woodson, S, California

I hope the Rams finally do get this guy with their First Pick. Jihaad Campbell would really help oiur horrific scenario at ILB.

The Rams could add a potential defensive starter in the first round.

If we miss on one of the Big Three TEs then yes, Raheem should send Kyle Pitts for a 6th Rounder.

4 players who could be potential trade fits with the Rams

The Los Angeles Rams could add some veterans in the trade market if they don't find the right pieces in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Apparently Jack Bech is a new version of Puka Nacua. Would be nice selection in the Third Round.

One of the top receivers prospects is getting a favorable comparison heading into the 2025 Draft.
