The Los Angeles Rams have once again seemed to get it right with their rookie class. Following Aaron Donald’s retirement, one of the biggest goals for general manager Les Snead was to rebuild the defense and draft some building pieces for the unit moving forward.
With the 19th overall pick, the Rams had Jared Verse fall into their lap. Verse has been undoubtedly the most impressive defensive rookie through the first nine weeks of the season. However, the Rams weren’t slated to pick again until the 52nd overall pick. By that time, much of the high-end talent would be off of the board.
