Rams should have drafted at least 1 rookie who could help
The 5-player class hasn’t produced at all in 2026.
The Los Angeles Rams are struggling as their rookie class fails to deliver any significant contributions this season, despite having a total of five draft picks. Quarterback Ty Simpson, selected 13th overall, hasn't taken a single snap and is unlikely to do so. Defensive tackle Tim Keenan, who played just 19 snaps on the Raiders, was recently moved from the practice squad.
Wide receiver Max Klare has played just one offensive snap all season, and tight end Kenyon Sadiq has played only one offensive snap in four games. Receiver C.J. Daniels has played three offensive snaps without receiving a single target. Offensive lineman Keagen Trost, a third-round pick, has been sidelined by injuries. This lack of rookie help has become another challenge for head coach Sean McVay and the team.
While the plan was to build for the future, it's hard to argue against the value of having young players contribute on the field.
