Rams Snag Shutdown CB Mansoor Delane

0:00On April 7, in this 2026 Mott draft, the Los Angeles Ram snagged Mansour Delane, the shut down corner from LSU, right at Pick 13. Delane balled out with a near-perfect season, locking down receivers like nobody's business. Only 13 catches allowed all year, zero penalties, and 11 pass breakups. Dude ran a mid-4.340, earning first team all-American honors. Earlier this year, Delane transferred from Virginia Tech, where he was already a top prospect, and straight dominated as LSU's CB1. His stats pop, seven first downs allowed matching his deflections, a passer rating against of just 31.9, and no touchdown given up. Minor injuries aside, he's healthy in scheme versatile, excelling in man or zone. Fans and analysts are buzzing because the Ram secondary was already elite last season, second best in the league, with guys like Trent McDuffy and Jalen Watson. Some question doubling up on corners, but Delane's a day-one starter who fits perfect next

1:00to McDuffy, both athletic and versatile. It strengthens their back five ball-hawks without real holes elsewhere. Now pairing this crew with their ferocious front five-jered verse, Byron Young, and more, can make L.A.'s defense unstoppable, forcing quick threes, and outs for Matthew Stafford to feast. Delane's intelligence and clean footwork make him a sponge for vet knowledge, and he might even flip depth pieces for future picks. This mock has the rands getting richer on D, turning heads in a draft full of edge rushers and linemen still on the board.
