The Los Angeles Rams have a burning question regarding what they're going to do in the draft.
The Los Angeles Rams have less draft capital after pulling off one of the biggest trades of the offseason, but it was well worth it to get an All-Pro cornerback to bolster their secondary. Regardless, there's still a lot of pressure for them to get their selections right.
The Rams are projected to be a Super Bowl contender once again in 2026, with the big game being played in their home stadium.

The only quarterback on their roster isStafford will be one of the oldest quarterbacks in the NFL next season. It'd be amazing if he were to play like an MVP again, but the chance of injury isn't zero. They need to have a better backup plan in place, and they might find that in the draft.

I personally see the pros and cons in making a move like this, but if not Simpson, what other options are there?

I don't know if there's even a quarterback outside of the top two who would be able to beat out Bennett IV in training camp. That's why I'd prefer the Rams go with another veteran option, like they had been in seasons prior. Jimmy Garoppolo wasn't brought back, so some other options are Teddy Bridgewater and CJ Beathard. They at least have real game experience they can fall back on if the worst happens and Stafford is out for an extended period of time.Fernando Alfaro-Donis found his passion for sports playing high school football, which led him to pursue journalism as an English major at UCLA.
