Myles Garrett Changes Everything for the Rams
Los Angeles landed the league's most feared pass rusher in a five-year, $185M deal — and just like that, the Rams' defense, the NFC West, and the Super Bowl odds look completely different.
After Myles Garrett landed in horns, AD reopened the conversation himself. McVay and Snead aren't slamming the door. Here's where the comeback chatter actually stands today.
The Rams' starting left tackle was arrested Monday night on a felony domestic violence allegation. The league, the team, and the depth chart all have decisions to make. Here's the situation, the projection, and the plan.
Charges have not been filed. The next court appearance is scheduled for June 30, 2026. The NFL Personal Conduct Policy permits discipline regardless of conviction. We will update this block as the situation develops.

2025 Stats (Alabama)
305-of-473 (64.5%) · 3,567 yds · 28 TD · 5 INT · 145.2 rating · 2nd Team All-SEC · Manning Award finalist · PFF Overall Grade 83.1 (12th of 57 QBs) · PFF Clean-Pocket Grade 91.3 (7th)
Scout's Take
Five-star recruit who sat behind Bryce Young and Jalen Milroe. Elite pre- and post-snap processor with polished footwork and a gunslinger mentality. NFL comp: Brock Purdy. The Rams now have their QB of the future to sit and learn behind reigning MVP Matthew Stafford.
Why the Rams Made This Pick
Les Snead ended months of speculation. With Stafford at 38, LA locks in a pro-ready passer with elite football IQ (son of UT-Martin HC Jason Simpson) who lowered Alabama's all-time single-season INT mark. Redshirt development year behind an MVP is the ideal runway.
2025 (Ohio State): 43 rec, 448 yds, 2 TD in 14 games · 2024 (Purdue): team-leading 51 rec, 685 yds, 4 TD · Career: 116 rec, 1,329 yds, 6 TD · Arm 32⅛" · Hand 9⅛"
Scout's Take
Silky route runner with PFF 99th-percentile athletic score among Power-5 TEs over the last 5 years. Former QB with elite football IQ — reads leverage pre-snap and adjusts mid-route. NFL comp: Zach Ertz. Middle-of-field nightmare with high-point ability.
Why the Rams Made This Pick
McVay gets a versatile move-TE with three-down potential to pair with Tyler Higbee — someone who can flex out wide (13% of his 2025 snaps), work the seam, and create YAC. Back-to-back offensive picks give Ty Simpson a young weapons room to grow with.
2025 (Missouri): Started all 13 games at right tackle · 2024 (Wake Forest): Played 12 games with 11 starts (10 RT, 1 LT) · College journey: Indiana State (4 yrs) → Morgan State (1) → Wake Forest (1) → Missouri (1)
Accolades
Third-Team Associated Press All-American · First-Team All-SEC · Climbed five college programs and ended his career as one of the most decorated tackles in the SEC
Why the Rams Made This Pick
Battle-tested seventh-year senior who started 13 straight games against SEC competition. Adds proven right-tackle depth and competition behind the starters — a smart Day 2 value play after pouring early picks into offensive skill (Simpson + Klare). Pro-ready age 25 means he can plug in immediately rather than developmental project.
The deal: Rams sent picks #207, #251, and #252 to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for pick #197, jumping up 10 spots in the sixth round to grab Miami WR CJ Daniels. The trade reduced the Rams' final draft class from 7 picks to 5.

2025 (Miami): 50 rec, 557 yds, 7 TD in 13 games · Career: 198 rec, 2,996 yds, 29 TDs across 6 college seasons (Liberty → LSU → Miami) · 80% contested-catch rate over last 2 seasons (PFF) · Wingspan 78¾"
Scout's Take
Crafty route runner with elite ball-tracking and contested-catch chops. Signature moment: one-handed deep TD in double coverage vs. Notre Dame in 2025, called the "best catch in football." NFL comp: Allen Lazard / George Pickens (back-shoulder artist). Lacks elite top-end speed but wins with technique, hands, and toughness.
The Off-Field Story
Vice President of Angels of Epilepsy non-profit. His mother has battled epilepsy for decades, forcing him to grow up fast as a young caregiver. Six-year college journey reflects relentless work ethic.
Why the Rams Made This Pick
Snead traded UP for him — sending three picks (207, 251, 252) to the Eagles for pick #197. McVay finally adds a true WR3 behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. Daniels' contested-catch profile fits perfectly with Stafford's anticipation throws and back-shoulder game.
2024 breakout: 40 tackles, 7.5 TFL, 2.5 sacks at NT for Alabama · 2023: 38 tackles, 1.5 TFL, 1 sack · Multi-year SEC starter at one of the toughest positions in college football
Scout's Take
Quintessential 3-4 nose tackle. Eats space, plays low to the ground, has natural leverage, and is impossible to move off the ball. NFL comp: Andrew Billings. Two-down run-stuffer with rotational starter upside. Pass-rush is limited but his anchor is elite.
The Transformation
Arrived at Alabama at nearly 392 pounds. Shed 65+ pounds to reach his current play weight of 320-330. Redshirted as a true freshman after a senior-year MCL injury. Story of dedication that finally paid off in his 2024 breakout.
Why the Rams Made This Pick
First defensive pick of the class. Rams DL room is deep with Kobie Turner, Bobby Brown III, and Braden Fiske, but lacked a true space-eating nose tackle. Keenan provides immediate run-down depth and special-teams potential at no risk — he's a Day 3 dart throw with rotational-starter ceiling.
• ESPN: B — "Long-view roster building from a contender"
• NY Post: B (Simpson at #13) — "McVay clearly has conviction in him as a franchise talent"
• Yahoo / McDonald: F (Simpson at #13) — The lone outlier; calls the pick "perplexing"
• CBS Sports: B- (Daniels) — "Productive collegiate receiver, McVay should put him in position to make plays"
• Athletic: Praise for back-to-back offensive picks giving Simpson a young weapons room
• Consensus: Smart Day 2 value (Klare/Trost), bold Round 1 swing (Simpson), late-round upside (Daniels/Keenan)

San Francisco 49ers
Rams 4-2 in last 3 seasons • 49ers 0-4 in Super Bowls since 1995
DELUSIONAL
Latest Intel
Signed 32-year-old Mike Evans coming off a broken collarbone. Voided $27M to dump Brandon Aiyuk. George Kittle still trash-talking about “always wanting to beat the Rams.” Good luck with that.
Trash Talk
Kittle says he always wants to beat us. Cute. Maybe focus on beating Father Time first — your WR1 is older than some of your fans’ dads. We took KC’s entire secondary and you signed Mike Evans’ hamstring. The Melbourne game is going to be a 16-hour flight just to catch an L. 🇦🇺
Won NFC Championship 31-27 (Jan 2026) • Super Bowl LX Champs
UNFINISHED BUSINESS
Latest Intel
Won Super Bowl LX over the Patriots 29-13. Sam Darnold having a career renaissance. Kenneth Walker III balling out. They’re the defending champs and +800 favorites to repeat.
Trash Talk
Congratulations on your Super Bowl, Seattle. Enjoy it. Because we’re +700 favorites and we just fixed the one thing that cost us the NFC Championship — the secondary. McDuffie and Watson are going to make DK Metcalf’s life miserable. The throne is temporary. We’re coming. 👑
Receipts
We went 12-5 and lost by 4 in the NFC Championship. Then we added an All-Pro CB and two more starters. Math says we’re better. The scoreboard will confirm it in September.
Arizona Cardinals
Rams won 37-20 in Week 18 (Jan 2026) • Cardinals went 3-14 in 2025
BLESS THEIR HEARTS
Latest Intel
New HC Mike LaFleur. Possibly moving on from Kyler Murray. Full rebuild mode. They’re +25,000 to win the Super Bowl — dead last in the NFC West.
Trash Talk
Arizona, we love you. Somebody has to finish 4th so we can all feel good about ourselves. 3-14 is impressive though — it takes real commitment to be that bad. Your Super Bowl odds are longer than the flight to Melbourne. But hey, at least you gave us the 13th pick. Thanks for that! 🙏
Receipts
Rams 37, Cardinals 20 (Jan 2026). Stafford threw 4 TDs against them in a game that didn’t even matter. Imagine when we actually try.

🔥 HOT
Klare reaction: "This is where tight ends become weapons"
Klare on getting picked by McVay's offense: "This is where tight ends become weapons. I watched Higbee, Kupp, K-Will tape — McVay treats every position like a chess piece." High praise for the scheme on Day 1 of his Rams life.
Clean report card: no new injury concerns reported from the first OTA practice. Stafford was spotted in helmet, throwing on air — full participation expected through the spring.
Parsons, Nabers "shocked" by Simpson at #13 — Bleacher Report
Micah Parsons, Malik Nabers, Trevor Sikkema, and Adam Lefkoe broke down the Rams' Round 1 swing on Bleacher Report — calling it the biggest surprise of Day 1 and questioning the timing while crediting the long-term plan behind Stafford.
The 2026 NFL Draft did not move the line — DraftKings still has the Rams a notch ahead of the rest of the conference at +750 to win Super Bowl LXI, with Seattle next at +950. The Ty Simpson pick at #13 was a developmental swing, not a 2026 contention play.
Source: ESPN / DraftKings. Sharps reportedly took the Over heavy in the first 48 hours post-draft.

Jerome Bettis' 1994 Pro Bowl rookie season
Before Pittsburgh, 'The Bus' was a Ram. Bettis ran for 1,429 yards as a rookie and made the Pro Bowl. The Rams traded him in 1996 - one of the most notorious deals in franchise history.
Daily tribute to the players who built the Ramily.

Final Draft Class Reactions — 2026 NFL Draft
ESPN / Field Yates
B grade
Final 2026 Draft Class Grade
"The Rams went off-script with Ty Simpson at #13, but the long-term logic is sound: Stafford is 38, the heir apparent had to be drafted at some point. Klare and Trost in rounds 2-3 are clean value adds."
"Reach. The Rams could've gotten a starter at WR or OT and waited on QB. Picking Simpson at 13 instead of trading back is the most questionable Day 1 swing of the night."
"Solid class with a swing-for-the-fences QB pick. The middle rounds (Klare, Trost) are the value spine. The trade up for CJ Daniels in Round 6 was vintage Snead."
"This is the McVay-Snead bet on themselves: take the QB you want now and protect Stafford's runway. The depth picks all hit needs - swing tackle, slot WR, sub-package DT."
With only five draft picks, the Rams' real roster build happened at midnight Saturday. Here's the full undrafted free agent class — 19 rookies signed, scouted, and ready to fight for a 53-man roster spot.
19 rookies signed
11 defensive prospects
8 offensive prospects

QBTexas
Matthew Caldwell
6'4", 210 lbs
Backed up Arch Manning at Texas; resilient pocket presence with surprising athleticism. Pro-day performance opened eyes — fits McVay's mobile-QB blueprint as a developmental piece behind Stafford and Simpson.
Mel Kiper had him 39th overall on his board pre-draft — somehow slid out of the seven rounds. Productive bend-rusher; the UDFA steal of this class for LA.
Rugged interior plug with a chip on his shoulder. Built for the trenches — exactly the kind of grinder Chris Shula's defense rotates in on early downs.
Big-bodied corner with serious production: 90 tackles across two seasons. Length and physicality fit the press-bail wrinkles LA introduced late in 2025.
