Athletic has been doing every teams Drafts. Today is the Rams. Only have synopsis.

The Athletic:

The info is from various NFL GMs (perhaps other exec's) viewpoints.

Bottom line: any WR or TE player the Rams might have selected at 13 would have had minimal to some impact on this year's team. But not very much.

Some felt that Simpson was about equal with Mendoza. They felt that Brock Purdy was more or less Simpson's floor, and that McVay could take the Rams a long way with that.

The Rams did something by taking Simpson that none of these execs expected, and the way they were able to keep their plan to take Simpson secret for so long was quite amazing.

If Simpson pans out, "it was a genius move".
