NFL analyst says Rams must nail this goal in 2026 draft

Yahoo Sports

The Rams don't have many issues to fix in the draft, so perhaps they should look to add as much depth and longevity to a certain position.

The Los Angeles Rams are pretty much loaded at every position on their roster heading into the 2026 NFL draft. It's a great position to be in, but it also means the team needs to start thinking about depth and longevity when it comes to the construction of the team. Quarterback is the biggest one to consider, but this is the wrong draft to be thinking about succession.

However, NFL. com's Gennaro Filice believes the Rams need to look at accomplishing a different goal this year: Planning ahead at wide receiver. Davante Adams is heading into a contract season at age 33, while Puka Nacua recently entered rehab with one year remaining on his rookie deal.

Even if you operate under the assumption that the Rams ultimately will extend Nacua, this receiver room could use another playmaker for 2026 and beyond. Los Angeles can target one of this draft's top wideouts at No. 13 overall or address the position on Day 2.

Given the depth of this WR class, the Rams should have alluring options available at Nos. 61 and 93. L.
