Rams Eye Texas Tech WRs in Draft
About this episode
The Rams are considering drafting two wide receivers from Texas Tech, Reggie Virgil and Caleb Douglas, known for their speed and playmaking abilities. Despite concerns about their slender frames, the Rams see potential in these late-round prospects for their special teams and backup roles. The team aims to add fresh legs to their receiver room, following a thin depth last season. Expect the Rams to secure at least one of these prospects by the drafts end or as undrafted free agents.

0:00It's April 5th. Welcome in. This is NFL News Today, where the league meets AI. I'm Cory with the story. The Rams might snag not one, but two wide receivers from Texas Tech in this year's draft, with GM less need showing real interest. First up is Reggie Virgil, a 6'3, 190-pound transfer for Miami of Ohio. He put up 700 F5 yards as a senior for the Red Raiders in their playoff run after breaking out with 816 yards the year, before. Meanwhile, Caleb Douglas caught eyes at the senior bowl. He transferred from Florida to Texas Tech, dropping 877 yards in his first year there, then 846 and 7. Touchdowns, the next. Both guys bring speed. Douglas clocked to 4.3940, but scouts worry about their slender frames getting bullied by NFL corners. Just like Land Zero Line, see them as late-round backups at best, may be WR-4s with special teams' juice.
1:01Virgil's got solid route running and body control for contested catches, but drops in lack of burst are red flags. Douglas flashes big on fades and deep balls, yet his focus dips in top-end speed is an elite. Texas Tech's known for padding receiver stats and few like them sticking the league. Think Eric Ezucanma or Josh Kelly who flamed out quick. Still, Sneeds meeting signal the Rams won fresh legs beyond their vets, especially after thin depth last season. By drafts end, expect L.A. to grab at least one on day three, or scoop them undrafted. Either way, this vibe check keeps their receiver room evolving, ready to compete
