The Los Angeles Rams are hoping they've found a diamond in the rough in Stetson Bennett, whom they selected in the fourth round of the 2023 draft.
One NFL executive told The Athletic's Mike Sando that the Rams are hoping the Georgia product can be their Brock Purdy.
"They are looking for their Brock Purdy," the exec said. "The reality is, no one is going to notice the guard they took, but if Stetson Bennett can play, it's going to be a Hall of Fame draft."
The 49ers selected Purdy with the last overall pick in the 2022 draft out of Iowa State, and he was marvelous filling in as San Francisco's starting quarterback following injuries to Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo.
