2025 NFL Draft: 3 Prospects the Los Angeles Rams Could Target (si.com)
“Let’s take a look at three players the Rams could select in this year’s NFL Draft.
Oregon OT Josh Conerly
Protecting 37-year-old quarterback Matthew Stafford, still playing at the top of his game, is a big priority for the Rams offense. While adding more weapons is critical after news broke of an impending Cooper Kupp trade, securing Staffords blindside is more important. Conerly fits the mold of a potential Sean McVay left tackle; a lineman with good athletic ability and quickness out of his stance to reach his landmarks in pass protection and as a run blocker in the Rams zone blocking scheme. Conerly is also an experienced tackle with over 25 starts under his belt protecting Bo Nix and Dillion Gaberial.”
Puka Nacua excited to take on larger leadership role for Rams (nbcsports)
“During an appearance on PFT Live, Nacua said that is “something I’m still trying to process” but he has thought about what it will mean for his role on the team moving forward. Nacua said he learned how to be a professional from watching Kupp over the last two years and that he is looking forward to implementing those lessons as he takes on a bigger leadership position for the franchise.
“I’m excited to put those things into place and to follow the model that he kind of set in the Rams organization,” Nacua said.”
Rams’ Australia Trip Part of Six-Nation Marketing Plan (sportico.com)
“The Los Angeles Rams have held designated NFL commercial marketing rights in Australia since 2021, when the nation became one of their six International Home Marketing Areas (IHMA). LA will be able to strengthen its footprint there as the nominal home team for a 2026 NFL international game in Melbourne against a still-to-be-determined opponent, the league announced Wednesday.
With a concerted effort to gain traction in Asia and Oceania, the Rams are already selling international travel package deposits for the Melbourne visit on their website, starting at $500 per person.”
