Rams Shock Draft: Simpson, Bernard, Jones

0:00It's April 24th, California news today starts now, AI-powered and ready. The Los Angeles Rams turn heads in the first round by grabbing quarterback Ty Simpson from Alabama with a 13th overall pick. Everyone figured they'd go wide receiver or offensive lineman, but nope, they locked in their guy after Matthew Stafford, setting up the post-stafford. Error, right there on Thursday night. Day 2 kicks off Friday, and the Rams hold picks at 61st overall and 93rd in the third round. They could trade back to bunch up selections or even move up if talent slides, especially with solid wide receivers and linebackers still hanging, around Mike Denzel Boston or Josiah Trotter. Draft fans were stunned by the Simpson move since he wasn't the consensus top choice for LA. Still, it opens doors for roster tweaks without forcing their hand on any one spot, giving them real flexibility to build around that young arm. In our Mach 4 day 2, picture the Rams snagging wide receiver Jeremy Bernard from Alabama

1:02at 61st. He's a smooth slot guy who fits like Robert Woods did back in the day, perfect as a reliable WR-3 to boost the passing game. Then at 93rd, they add interior offensive lineman Logan Jones from Iowa for depth up front where four starters are hitting free agency soon. He slides in at center and grows into a starter smart insurance move as the Rams keep stacking this squad. Keep an eye on those trades. Day 2 could get wild.
