Over the last couple of days, the Los Angeles Rams have been busy trimming down their roster to 53 players before Saturday’s deadline, and while there were plenty of tough decisions to make, it was surprising to see Dakota Allen fail to earn a spot.
Back in April when the Rams decided to use a seventh-round pick on the Texas Tech product, Allen seemed like the kind of rookie that could one day potentially play a major role on defense for Los Angeles.
Ever since the Sean McVay era officially got underway back in 2017, the Rams have received all sorts of high praise for the work they do preparing for drafts since the team has managed to come up with numerous steals over the last three years.
