Seriously though, it may be a nice under-the radar pick-up for a role-player and special teams contributor.

Landman, 26, signed on with the Falcons as an undrafted free agent out of Colorado in 2022. He was among their final roster cuts as a rookie and re-signed to the practice squad.

Atlanta re-signed him to a futures deal last offseason and he wound up cracking their active roster, eventually earning a starting role. He re-signed as an exclusive rights free agent in 2024.

In 2024, Landman appeared in 13 games for the Falcons, making six starts and recording 81 total tackles, one pass defended and three forced fumbles.

Interesting, not super exciting but isn't terrible. He's good against the run apparently. From what I could find on past tweets Falcons fans are kinda split on him. Seems he gets taken out on passing downs because he is not good but is a good run defender. So I'd imagine that'll be his role with us.

This helps again with some draft flexibility - would still love for the Rams to get a baller at ILB in rd 4 / 5.

Getting closer Snead, I said Cashman

 

[Corbin]

Well this is our bridge LB for a rookie( tells me we are getting some later in the draft), thank god that means Reeder isn't going to be back.

 

[Ramhusker]

Well, we needed bodies there. Hope he is mean as Billy Bob!

I love his knack for punching the ball out. Looks like an upgrade from Rozeboom as I can't imagine putting together more than 20 seconds of Rozeboom highlights.

Nice find for the video - thank you.

Looks like a secure tackler, who likes to punch the ball out. I'll take it. Still hoping for someone in the draft, but this definitely puts a body into the rotation.

 

[Londoner]

Landman will be like a landmine and make this defence go boom!

 

[El Chapo Jr]

At least it wasn't Reeder, but they needed to add to the room

That does seem impressive.

hmm.... I like it. Good video.
Kid has good instincts, burst, some PBU's to go with a boat load of FFs & TFLs. He's not all-pro but much better than what we have now, Speights excluded.

 

[Ram_Rally]

Upgrade over rozeboom and Reeder? I'll take it.

 

[OldSchool]

I like this!

Here's an articles early in the 2023 season of him impressing the coaches forcing them to get him on the field. They got him on the field and he had the 3rd most run stops in the league.

Raheem Morris changed the defense in 2024 and he fell out of favor with the new scheme.
