Build your perfect Rams offensive lineman
The Los Angeles Rams have been blessed with some of the best offensive linemen in NFL history. From Hall of Famers to overlooked role players, every era of Rams football has featured trench warriors who helped define championship-caliber offenses. Whether your memories begin with Tom Mack, Jackie Slater, Dennis Harrah, Kent Hill, and Doug Smith, […]
L.A. Rams News: More uniforms?
The Los Angeles Rams may be revealing another new uniform this year, maybe. We don’t actually know, but it sounds like something the Rams marketing team would do. For me, I gotta say I miss the St. Louis uniforms. I also think the classic Eric Dickerson (if you will) uniforms have a nice touch to […]
Inside CJ Daniels’ winding college journey to the Rams
The Los Angeles Rams and wide receiver CJ Daniels kept tabs on each other long before their paths crossed in the 2026 NFL draft. Daniels, who Los Angeles traded up 10 spots with the Eagles to acquire in the sixth round, told the Rams’ official website that he models his game, specifically his releases, after Davante […]
ESPN hates the Rams’ offseason
The Los Angeles Rams have been getting positive marks for their acquisitions all offseason, starting and ending with two blockbuster trades for Trent McDuffie and Myles Garrett. But the whole could be worse than the parts, at least according to ESPN. Seth Walder, the network’s analytics expert, posted his annual offseason grades on Wednesday and […]
How Rams could fall apart by the time Ty Simpson takes over
The Los Angeles Rams earned some endearing names for their aggressive team building approach: “F them picks”, “stars and scrubs”, and “veteran-centric”. Despite “F them picks” enduring as the lasting moniker, I find that “stars and scrubs” most accurately represents how the Rams were able to accumulate key veterans, stay under the NFL salary cap, […]
Draft class 2024 check-in: 4 Rams no longer on team
40% of the Los Angeles Rams’ 2024 draft class is no longer with the team: The Rams made 10 picks total three drafts ago. Braden Fiske is now the top-billed remaining player after the team shipped Verse to the Cleveland Browns in the Myles Garrett trade package. Those who are still on the roster figure […]
‘Major disappointment’ if Rams don’t win Super Bowl?
Travel back in time about a month ago when the Los Angeles Rams traded for Myles Garrett. Garrett was formally introduced to L.A. during a press conference and one of the media members said the quiet part out loud for L.A. when they described not winning the upcoming Super Bowl as a “major disappointment”. Perhaps […]
Rams have 6 RBs on All-Time Top 100 list: Is that enough?
Will Kyren Williams become one of the top-100 running backs of all-time? If so, the Rams’ current starter could become the seventh running back in the history of the franchise worthy of that designation. L.A. already has six of the top-75, according to one website. Windy City Gridiron published a list of the top-100 running […]
Giants could be harder game for Rams than you think
Will the New York Giants give the Rams a tougher battle than anticipated in Week 2? With a combined record of 7-27 over the past two years, one would think not, but if you look a little deeper at the Giants then the outcome may not be as cut-and-dry as an easy win for the […]
Better Rams offseason: 2017 or 2026?
The last two times the Rams had an offseason as explosive as 2026, they were much worse teams the year before. Coming off of a 4-12 season in 2017, the Rams hired Sean McVay, signed Andrew Whitworth and Robert Woods, traded for Sammy Watkins, and drafted Cooper Kupp. And following a 10-6 season in 2021, […]
L.A. Rams News: The roster is strong in this one
Top-heavy or not, this Los Angeles Rams team has a strong roster. They have quality starters all over the field. At least, that is the expectation. This team may make mistakes, they will make mistakes, but they shouldn’t have any consistent holes. That’s the plan. That is the hope. The roster is strong in this […]
Two Rams draft picks from a year ago ranked worst at their positions
Two of the Los Angeles Rams’ 2o25 draft picks standout in a negative light in comparison to their rookie peers from a year ago. Konata Mumpfield and Ty Hamilton ranked among the worst at the receiver and defensive tackle positions, respectively, in their first seasons. This is particularly problematic because the Rams did not make […]
Ranking the Rams’ non-divisional games from worst to best
The Los Angeles Rams have several important games on the 2026 schedule, several of them involving NFC West foes. Fans know that matchups against the Seahawks and 49ers will be a blast, but there are plenty of exciting games outside of the division as well. Here is a full ranking of the Rams’ non-divisional games […]
Are the 49ers better or just a little bit different?
The Rams will meet their arch-rivals from the NFC West, the San Francisco 49ers, about 10 weeks from now. Looking at the changes that the 49ers have made in the offseason, including the addition of Mike Evans and the return of Nick Bosa from a torn ACL, it’s not clear to me if San Francisco […]
Which 2026 first round pick is most likely to become a future Ram?
Yesterday, I wrote about how the Rams DO value first round picks. They have acquired 24 former first round players in the 15 years with Les Snead constructing the team as the general manager. So with the Rams having a history of being considered aggressive buyers and or willing to make blockbuster deals, it’s fair […]
Can Sean McVay “scheme around” offensive line vacancies?
While the drama swirling around Los Angeles Rams starting left tackle Alaric Jackson and whether, or not, he’ll face NFL disciplinary actions is disconcerting, the situation is not untenable. In just the past three years, L.A. has faced the problems of having one or more offensive line starters missing a number of times. It won’t […]
L.A. Rams News: Don’t sleep on Rashid Shaheed
Rashid Shaheed ended up being a miraculous acquisition for the Seattle Seahawks last year as they went on their Super Bowl run. Shaheed made some massive plays against the Los Angeles Rams specifically, and going into his first full season with Seattle he could do it again. Despite the Rams having an improved defense, Shaheed […]
Draft class 2025 check-in: Rams betting big on Terrance Ferguson
Training camp for the Los Angeles Rams gets underway in roughly a month. It’s a good time to check in on last year’s draft class as they head into their sophomore seasons. Is the arrow pointed up or down for each? Round 1: Trading back with Falcons The trade with Atlanta fetched an additional first-round […]
Kyren Williams falls in NFL Top 100 for 2nd year in a row
As a former fifth-round pick, just making three NFL Top-100 lists in his career is already a huge accomplishment for Rams running back Kyren Williams, and a clear indication of his value to Sean McVay. However, for the second year in a row, Williams is lower on the list than he was the previous season. […]
All 86 Rams players, ranked
The Los Angeles Rams have 86 players on the roster as of today. Can you name all of them? You will be able to after you read this. Although ranking players is rather impossible, abstract, and unnecessary, the reason I did it for the current Rams roster is not about assigning values or playing favorites. […]
The Rams DO value first round picks
The Rams have never been afraid to think several moves ahead. Sometimes that means drafting and developing. Sometimes that means identifying a former first-round talent before the rest of the league catches up. Other times, it means acquiring established players who fit a very specific vision. The Rams have been notorious for landing former first […]
L.A. Rams News: Browns excited about Jared Verse
Many fans of the Los Angeles Rams loved Jared Verse, AND they are excited to see what Myles Garrett can do now that Verse has been traded to the Cleveland Browns as Garrett lands in L.A. Are Browns fans as excited about the move as Rams fans? Going into this year not likely as one […]
Myles Garrett will immediately upgrade this part of Rams defense
The run defense of the Los Angeles Rams will be the biggest beneficiary of the Myles Garrett-Jared Verse swap. While Garrett is a marginal upgrade from Verse as a pass rusher, he will dramatically move the needle in helping stop the run. This is one of the biggest pain points and regression for Verse from […]
Rams have 2 ‘Gold Shield’ players
The NFL is assigning special “Gold Shield” emblems that only five players in the league will wear next season. These emblems will go to the winners of five coveted awards: MVP, Offensive Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, Offensive Rookie of the Year, and Defensive Rookie of the Year. That means that […]
The most frustrating part of the Rams schedule
When the Los Angeles Rams schedule came out earlier this spring, there were a few notable items that popped up right away. That ranges from their elongated travel responsibilities to a few different arduous stretches, among other details. But as the offseason progresses, there’s one specific note that’s becoming increasingly frustrating: We have to wait […]
