Which running backs in the draft could succeed with Rams offensive line?

The running back position is one of the most difficult positions to evaluate in the NFL draft. A lot of this is because running backs are severely dependent on their situations whether that be scheme, the threat of the passing game, or the offensive line.

With a need for running back depth behind Cam Akers and Kyren Williams, this is something that the Rams will need to keep in mind. Last season, the Rams had an average-below average run-blocking offensive line, ranking 15th in adjusted line yards according to Football Outsiders and had the 19th best run-block grade according to Pro Football Focus.
