The Los Angeles Rams' eight picks in the 2025 NFL Draft could go in a variety of different directions.
While the team has no glaring gaps in the roster, general manager Les Snead should use his picks wisely to add impact players and shore up positions of need. There is also a chance the Rams add some long-term players, likely later in the draft.
Ryan Roberts of A to Z Sports went through all seven rounds of the draft for the Rams and added a plethora of players to the roster.
Roberts picked a mix of offensive and defensive players but doubled up on linebacker and offensive tackle. Oddly enough, the Rams went best player available at No. 26 with the Malaki Starks pick, but otherwise the selections look relatively stable and helpful for the 2025 season.
Here's the full rundown of picks in this seven-round mock draft:
- Round 1, Pick 26: Georgia S Malaki Starks
- Round 3, Pick 90: Clemson LB Barrett Carter
- Round 3, Pick 101: NC State OT Anthony Belton
- Round 4, Pick 127: Washington State WR Kyle Williams
- Round 6, Pick 190: Western Michigan CB Bilhal Kone
- Round 6, Pick 195: Syracuse TE Oronde Gadsden II
- Round 6, Pick 202: Oklahoma State LB Collin Oliver
- Round 6, Pick 201: Cincinnati OT John Williams
Carter is a highly-experienced and productive linebacker. Belton is a big-bodied tackle. Williams speed threat at receiver. Kone is a tall lockdown corner. Gadsden II is a big slot tight end. Oliver is a fun defensive end/inside linebacker hybrid coming off a foot injury. Williams played tackle in college but could swing in as a guard.
While this draft doesn't include any Week 1 starters (except maybe Starks), this class would give the Rams much-needed depth but also open the door to some developmental contributors in the future.
