Rams Shock NFL with QB Pick, Fans React

0:00On April 30th, the Los Angeles Rams shook up the 2026 NFL draft by grabbing Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson with the 13th overall pick. Everyone saw them as a wildcard team, but snagging a quarterback this high caught the whole league off guard, especially since they're built to chase a Super Bowl right now. That said, it's not a total head scratcher for Simpson's future. He lands in the perfect spot, sitting behind Matthew Stafford and learning the ropes from Sean McVeigh for a year or two. Still, critics call it a big reach for a guy who's undersized, lightly tested, and coming off a rough injury-plague starter season. Fans and media reactions hit like thunder, pure shockwaves. Many wanted the Rams to beef up wide receiver sooner, not way to the sixth round, leaving folks scratching their heads on the team's real game. Plan. The Rams kept building with four more picks. Head in, Max Claire, offensive lineman, Keegan Trost, wide receiver CJ Daniels, and defensive

1:00lineman Tim. Keenan III, grades from fans are all over the map. Some love the QB upside, others hate passing on immediate help. Bottom line, this draft keeps the Rams in win now mode while betting long on the next big arm, and we'll see if it pays off come training camp.
