From now until the start of free agency on March 7, we've taken a position-by-position look at the Los Angeles Rams in eight installments. The Rams -- coming off a 4-12 season that prompted the hiring of rookie head coach Sean McVay -- have about $40 million in cap space but do not have a first-round draft pick. They also have a lot of needs, all of which can feel a little overwhelming without breaking it down by section. We'll do that here. Last but not least: special teams. (Previous: WR/TE, DL, OL, LB, RB, QB, DB)
Key returnees: P Johnny Hekker, PR Tavon Austin, LS Jake McQuaide
Key stat: The Rams broke an NFL record by placing 51 punts inside the 20-yard line in 2016, with only one touchback.
