Fulfilling depth at the edge for the Los Angeles Rams is a work in progress. Fans are familiar with the exploits of Jared Verse and Byron Young, the bookend starters, but for 2025, L.A. did not re-up E#3 Michael Hoecht and now must replace his 639 defensive snaps and positional versatility.
To fill the void, the Rams did spend some draft capital at edge, getting Michigan’s Josaiah Stewart at #90 of Round 3 and they have two players with a few seasons in the pro’s, 2023 Round 5 pick Nick Hampton and Keir Thomas, undrafted in 2022.
