Since hiring Sean McVay as head coach in 2017, the Rams have used their first selection in the draft on an offensive player six out of seven times.
Rams head coach Sean McVay, left, talks to general manager Les Snead after NFL football practice Tuesday, July 26, 2022, in Irvine, Calif. When Aaron Donald announced his retirement a week into free agency, it seemed to guarantee the Rams would look to the first round of the NFL draft to find the elite defensive tackle’s successor.
The results have been mixed; second-round pick Steve Avila was named to the All-Rookie team as a left guard last season, while Logan Bruss has yet to break through in his first two seasons. That’s the nature of the draft. And the 2024 draft might be the perfect situation for the Rams to find top-end offensive talent. This year’s crop of high-end prospects are heavily weighted toward the offensive side of the ball, particularly at receiver and line. Some experts predict Thursday’s opening day to break the record for the most offensive players selected in the first round.
There are plenty of other speed freaks at receiver in this draft, including the Texas duo of Adonai Mitchell and Xavier Worthy. But with such a deep receiver class, there are intriguing options in the second and third rounds, as well. Western Kentucky’s Malachi Corley, a former running back, could be the type of gadget player McVay loves to game plan for.
