NFL world reacts to Rams finally drafting a WR after trading up for CJ Daniels

It took a while, but the Los Angeles Rams finally addressed the wide receiver position in the sixth round of the 2026 draft. They traded up 10 spots for Miami wideout CJ Daniels, taking him at No. 197 overall on Saturday.

Daniels is an intriguing prospect thanks to his strong hands and physicality at the catch point, making difficult grabs in traffic with regularity in college. He'll compete with Konata Mumpfield and Jordan Whittington for snaps as the No. 3 receiver, while potentially giving the Rams a replacement for Davante Adams later on.
