Based on the last two games for Atlanta, this is my best guess. Obviously could easily sweep the Saints, but they could also lose at home to the Panthers or lose at the Jets.

Final record: 7-10

Guessing either way that pick is going to end up being in the 12-18 range, barring some injuries that make them a truly awful team the rest of the way.

Rams picking at #12 and #23 this week
Just by way of reference.
The Rams were definitely interested in Brock Bowers in last year's draft (tried to move-up); and were reportedly interested in Tyler Warren in this past draft.

The 12th overall pick would have been high enough for Bowers in 2024, and/or Warren in 2025.

Don't expect the Rams to go Tight End in 2026. Just wanted to point-out the level of talent available.

Jahmyr Gibbs went at #12 in 2023 ... Jameson Williams in 2022 ... Micah Parsons in 2021.
And ... AGAIN ... just for balance and perspective ... the 12th overall pick was Henry Ruggs.

Yeah, that's high. REALLY HIGH compared to the Rams picks during the McVay era. 34 picks higher than T. Ferguson this year. 7 picks higher that Verse last year. 24 picks higher than Avila the year previous to that. And 92 picks higher than Bruss in 2022!!! We could get somebody REALLY talented with that #12.....but my money is on, it'll be a little higher than that when Atlanta finishes playing like dogs.

Wasn’t AD #12?
 
Yes and that was Snead but pre-McVay. Those two could go anyway. Offensive weapon. LT. Shutdown CB. Snot popping safety. Trade up. Trade down.
Pre-McVay is an important distinction. It seems the Rams under McVay most often go offense early. The exceptions were 2019 with Taylor Rapp and 2024 with Verse and Fiske.

Every other year was offense first. I'd like a shutdown CB but I'm doubting that under McSnead.

Fisher had a big part in putting together a nasty defense when he was here.

His offense will not be discussed, for obvious reasons, haha.
Just to add...Goff was all Fisher. There was some story about Fisher and his son on vaction in the mountains or something like that, and they honed in on Goff watching tape of players, and had to have in. That's the only offensive player I know that we can credit to Fisher.

Note: Small chance (maybe big chance) I am remembering this all wrong...
