One of the biggest needs for the Los Angeles Rams this offseason will be the edge rusher position. After cutting Leonard Floyd in the offseason, the Rams opted to go into the year with Michael Hoecht who was transitioning from defense end and rookie Byron Young on the edge.
While Young has had some good moments, especially early, he has slowed down after hitting a rookie wall. Meanwhile, Hoecht has grown more comfortable on the edge as the season has progressed. With that said, the lack of pressure coming from the edge from the Rams defense has been noticeable.
