The LA Rams have had the best offseason of any NFL team. Now, the next step becomes focusing on the 2018 NFL Draft.

The LA Rams are easily the most improved team of the offseason and they are already coming off of a very impressive improvement from last year. With new head coach Sean McVay at the helm, the Rams followed up a 4-12 season with an 11-5. Now, with new talents on both sides of the ball, the Rams very well could be in line for 14 or 15 wins.

Los Angeles first brought in the Pro Bowl pairing of Marcus Peters and Aqib Talib, essentially going from one of the worst secondaries in football to one of the best.

Next, the Rams signed defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh to a one-year deal to play alongside Aaron Donald, creating the scariest interior rush we have seen in quite some time.

Then, to cap it all off, the Rams traded for former New England Patriots wide receiver, Brandin Cooks. Cooks is set to replace the hole left behind by Sammy Watkins and is a perfect fit in Sean McVay’s offensive system.

That last trade sent away the team’s first-round pick, leaving Los Angeles with no pick in the 2018 NFL Draft until the third-round. However, the Rams also have three fourth-round picks, a fifth-round pick and four sixth-round picks.

Knowing the LA Rams, they very well could package these trades to move back up in the draft into the second or even first-round. However, there still be some good prospects in the 2018 NFL Draft available this late.

Thus, we compiled our three favorite playmakers that the LA Rams should be considering in the middle rounds of the 2018 NFL Draft.
