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

[Retroram52]

We have got to get one of the Big DT's and OT's in this draft. No FAFO shit. Just get on with it. There are too many good players on both lines to wait until the 6th round to get one of each!

Peeps are filing into the new facility, I presume!

Look: Davante Adams, Rams players arrive for 1st day of offseason workouts

Davante Adams arrived for his 1st day of the Rams' offseason program, along with Matthew Stafford, Puka Nacua and other players

Interesting.

Should the Rams draft Darien Porter at #26?

The Turf Show Times forum community thinks so

I don’t understand the fascination with McCord.

The guy just doesn’t have much of a ceiling.

It just seems like another wasted pick like Bennett and so many other QB’s the Rams have drafted later in the draft.

Let’s face it, the Rams draft great later in the draft except for QB.

That might change ALR. If the Rams trade back into the Second Round, they will get a Second Rounder and another Third Rounder. Rumored trade partner: The Panthers. But that remains to be seen.

If they get a Second Rounder, then they may take Dart. But alot rumors are saying that McVay likes Milroe from Alabama who will probably be there in the Third Round. I could see the Rams doing another Verse/Fiske move and taking the ILB Campbell early and then Milroe later, both from Alabama.

We shall see, in a couple of days.

This is a helpful article. For all the fans back east, this article will help you gauge when the Rams will be going to the podium sans a trade on Day 1.

What time will the Rams be on the clock on Round 1 of the 2025 NFL Draft?

The Los Angeles Rams are not stepping up to the podium of the 2025 NFL Draft anytime soon. That is, the team may have picks dispersed throughout Days 1, 2, and

I think Dart and Milroe will be the reason the Rams find a trade partner to trade down with.

Teams will want that 5th year option on the QB’s, and trade back into the 1st to get it.

Rams don't need to take a QB this draft.. They should pass on all of them.

I don't think Bennett ever had production like McCord had last year. He seems to be every franchise's target if they pass on QB early. Watch Gruden's show with him, he does really well.

They should only take one if they really believe in him. For me, that's either betting on Milroe's athleticism or taking a shot with McCord. Anything else just seems like rehashing Bennett.

Another PFN mock attempt, again with Campbell falling to 26. Traded down a couple of times in the middle rounds to add 2 picks and move around a bit:

1.26: Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama
3.90: Jacob Parrish, CB, Kansas State
4.120: Shemar Turner, DT, Texas A&M (surprised he was still here)
5.141: Kyle McCord, QB, Syracuse
5.167: Malachi Moore, S, Alabama
6.178: Jalen Rivers, OT, Miami
6.190: Isaiah Bond, WR, Texas (if his off-field issues fall away, he's strong value here)
6.195: Jalin Conyers, TE, Texas Tech
6.201: Tyler Batty, Edge, BYU
6.202: Trevor Etienne, RB, Georgia (not sure why he's so late in these rankings)

We shall see how it all unfolds in a couple of days.

expect the Rams to not be picking on Thursday unless someone that wasn’t supposed to be available falls that they really want.

If the draft goes relatively to how most expect it will, Rams should have a trade partner available to trade down and wait till Friday to make their 1st selection.

Hopefully Sanders falls and teams in the teens don't like the offers from the Giants/Browns/Raiders/whomever to trade up to get a QB with a 5th year option.

It would hurt from a viewing perspective, as both my teams (Rams and Bills) could do so, after the Bills also did that last year.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

I think if Dart and/or Milroe are available at the Rams pick, they should find a trade partner because teams will want that 5th year option.

I could see the Giants or Browns as a possibility if they don’t take QB’s early.

 

[shopson67]

Multiple trade downs with the 1st pick:

2.63: Jalen Milroe, QB, Alabama
3.66: Jayden Higgins, WR, Iowa State
3.75: Harold Fannin Jr, TE, Bowling Green
3.90: Emery Jones, OT, LSU
3.101: David Walker, Edge, Central Arkansas
6.195: Jack Kiser, LB, Notre Dame
6.201: Tonka Hemingway, DT, South Carolina
6.202: Mello Dotson, CB, Kansas
2026 SF 2nd

Here is another QB the Rams are rumored to be intersted in. Dude is big and supposedly has a canon arm. We shall see.

Some people with Rams are reportedly 'very high' on QB Tyler Shough

According to ESPN, some people within the Rams organization are "very high" on Louisville QB Tyler Shough – a potential 1st-round prospect

Shough makes no sense for the Rams IMO. He'll be approaching his 30s by the time Stafford retires. He'll be 26 when the season starts, would be 28 if Stafford plays 2 seasons and retires. Plus, he's always falling backwards when throwing, I question how he will handle a pro pass rush.

 

[Retroram52]

Once again, one man's opinion of a good fit or doable is another man's no it ain't a good fit and should not be considered. I am just the messenger boy and in a couple of days we will find out who the Rams really want if they are taking a QB this year.

 

[Retroram52]

The reason Sanders as a QB is going to fall maybe out of the First Round is because his attitude and arrogance are prohibitive of any team taking a chance on his talent which is also being questioned. He has his father's mouth and arrogance and no organization wants a rookie coming into camp thinking and believing his shit doesn't have a foul odor.

I would seriously doubt the ShitferBrains Twins would take this guy if he falls to them at 26 (assuming the Rams would still be there) because the last guy who demonstrated this type of attitude, one Earnest Jones, got his ass shown the door because of it.

It sure sounds like some NFL coaches want nothing to do with Shedeur Sanders.
