The Los Angeles Rams lost a fair amount of talent during the league’s free agency period. While these losses are far from insurmountable, there are still significant questions where reliable contributors once were.
But to a certain extent the Rams expected to lose quality starters, and had the foresight to groom their replacements - sometimes even years before they were needed.
LA’s first pick in this week’s draft isn’t until 104 overall, which means they aren’t drafting for immediate contributors. Any holes in the starting lineup must be filled elsewhere, and it’s mostly ok because the Rams have planned ahead.
