3 Best Remaining Free Agents the Rams Can Sign

Even though most of the big-name free agents have been signed, there are plenty of solid names still available. Here are three of the best remaining free agents that the LA Rams can sign.

It's an exciting time to be a Los Angeles Rams fan as the NFL offseason is about to kick into its next gear. This year's organized team activities (OTAs) begin in less than two weeks, meaning the fanbase will have a better idea of how this offseason's draftees and free agent signings will impact the Rams' 2024 lineup.

While this year's projected 53-man roster looks solid on paper, there's always room for improvement. The Rams still have around $12.3 million in remaining cap space, per Spotrac, giving them more than enough money to target any of the top available free agents. Even though most of the big names are gone, there are plenty of available players who are hungry to chase a Super Bowl.

With that in mind, here are the three best remaining FAs that the Rams should target.

1. Marquez Valdes-Scantling, WR

The Rams are fortunate enough to be rostering both Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua, two of the NFL's best wide receivers. Neither playmaker is the fastest at their position, though, opening the door for Los Angeles to potentially sign veteran WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling.

Yes, the Rams already have Tutu Atwell as their deep threat, but another option to stretch the field doesn't hurt. Besides, Valdes-Scantling would bring a lot more experience to the table. The former 2018 fifth-rounder has racked up 186 receptions for over 3,100 yards and 16 touchdowns across six seasons.

That's without mentioning how he has over 400 yards and four TDs in 11 postseason games while also winning back-to-back Super Bowls with the Kansas City Chiefs.

After being released by the Chiefs earlier this offseason, the Rams can likely land Valdes-Scantling for cheap. He'll be looking to prove himself after failing to live up to the expectations that came with his three-year, $30 million contract, after all. I could see MVS striving in Los Angeles' offense as opposing teams will put their best defenders on Kupp and Nacua.
