Episode Details

The Los Angeles Rams, skipping a backup quarterback in free agency, are looking to the 2026 NFL Draft. With their late first-round pick, they could find value in a less-than-stellar quarterback class. A custom Rams fit formula graded 15 prospects, focusing on traits like processing, pocket toughness, and timing that align with Sean McVays system. Top tier elite fit, Indianas Fernando Mendoza, is likely off the board early. Next best, Alabamas Ty Simpson, resembles a young, mobile Kirk Cousins. Lower tiers include Miamis Carson Beck, LSUs Garrett Nussmeier, and Illinois Luke Altmyer. Avoid Clemsons Cade Klubnik and Penn States Drew Allar, poor scheme matches. Rams fans should keep an eye on mid-round prospects for a long-term backup option.
