The NFL Scouting Combine is on life support

The NFL Scouting Combine has become a major problem for the league. Participation rates dramatically fell from last year and are substantially down since 2019. Many have praised the event for producing the fastest times in drills that we’ve ever seen. This is also the result of artificial selection and a lack of participation. Prospects […]

Rams Mock Draft: Post-NFL Combine edition

The Los Angeles Rams may not have had a large presence at the NFL Combine, but they were certainly paying attention. It’s hard to imagine head coach Sean McVay didn’t take notice when Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq ran a 4.39 40-yard dash and tested as well as he did. With the Combine wrapping up […]

Rams may need new backup quarterback in 2026

When the Los Angeles Rams signed Jimmy Garoppolo back in 2024, it finally added stability to a backup quarterback position that lacked it previously under head coach Sean McVay. Throughout the McVay era, the Rams had primarily trusted John Wolford in the backup quarterback role, but he was very limited as a passer. Back in […]

L.A. Rams News: Theory, but they aren’t trading for A.J. Brown

I could be way off, but I don’t think the Los Angeles Rams are trading for A.J. Brown, and I don’t think I am alone in feeling this way. Now, I cannot say this is fact because I am not Les Snead, so what do I know? But at this time, the Rams seem more […]

Rams draft: Day 4 of the NFL Combine

The big uglies, offensive linemen, storm the field on the fourth and final day of the 2026 NFL Combine. While the Los Angeles Rams return all five starters, a stellar quintet at that, there are question marks behind them. The backups are an interior heavy group and the tackles in reserve are iffy, at best. […]

Who is Rams best value going to be in 2026?

If the Los Angeles Rams extend Puka Nacua to a record-breaking contract extension this year, as many expect them to do so that he doesn’t come near free agency in 2027, then his value to the team per dollar immediately goes down. That’s just on a per dollar basis—factually a star player making $5 million […]

L.A. Rams News: Former Chiefs CB is an option

Jaylen Watson has been with the Kansas City Chiefs the last four season, and is likely a pending free agent in this upcoming free agency cycle.

You can never have too many pass rushers

For nearly a full year we’ve wondered what the Los Angeles Rams plan to do with multiple first round picks. We rarely see this team make a selection in the NFL Draft’s opening round let alone appear on the clock twice. Could Sean McVay and Les Snead use the additional first rounder from the Atlanta […]

Who do you not want to see sign Tutu Atwell?

I warned earlier this month that Tutu Atwell could easily be better for his next team than he was with the Los Angeles Rams: One of the most disappointing outcomes of the 2025 season for the Los Angeles Rams was Tutu Atwell’s disappearing act. Atwell signed a one-year, $10M deal last offseason to return to […]

Day 2 of the Combine brings the cornerbacks, safeties and tight ends into the spotlight.

Matthew Stafford could have a home at ESPN after Rams

It is being reported by Andrew Marchand and the Athletic that ESPN may be looking at Matthew Stafford for some type of TV role after his time is done with the Los Angeles Rams and the NFL. Though it is unclear what specific job/role Stafford could be offered, it’s nice to have options on the […]

Makai Lemon or Jordyn Tyson?

If the Los Angeles Rams use their first pick on a wide receiver, who would they be better off with: USC’s Makai Lemon or Arizona State’s Jordyn Tyson?

NFL Combine Buzz: Rams hope to extend Warren McClendon

The Los Angeles Rams may have money to spend in free agency, but it wouldn’t be surprising if the team uses that money to re-sign its own players.
