The LA Rams are not perfect. To fix the little imperfections the team has, LA must utilize the 2018 NFL Draft.

With free agency beginning to calm down, it is time to look towards the NFL Draft. In particular, it is time to look at the holes that remain on the LA Rams’ roster, and how they can fix them come draft day. These holes include the positions left vacant by the departures of Sammy Watkins, Alec Ogletree and Robert Quinn. These are three high level players who’s talents will be difficult, but not impossible to replace.

Every great team is built on a solid foundation constructed through the draft, and the rams are no exception. The team has one of the best rosters in the entire league, but still has several areas that must be addressed before the start of next season. While there is still the chance that these areas may be filled with what remains of the free agency pool, even then the team should probably still draft talent at the position(s).

If the team decides to make draft selections that are at all similar to the ones displayed in the coming pages, the Rams will be one of the best teams in the NFL, if not the very best. This is a strong proclamation, i know. But the confidence that this team imbues into myself warrants a proclamation of this magnitude.

Okay, enough admiring the prospect of a post-draft Rams roster, let’s see which players can make this team live up its lofty expectations in 2018.
