0:00On April 24th, the Los Angeles Rams just stunned the NFL world by grabbing quarterback Ty Simpson with the 13th pick in the 2000, 26 draft. Most folks figured he'd slide to the late first round, or even the second, but the Rams jumped in early, proving those choir reports right about there. Big interest in him. Earlier this week, insider Ann Rapp report dropped that Rams' GMless need personally talk Simpson into declaring for the draft, promising he'd go in. The first round. Sneed backed it up big time by pulling the trigger right there at number 13. Fans and scouts are buzzing with mixed reactions, especially since Simpson's not your classic big arm prototype at 6 feet 1-200, 11 pounds. He backed up Jalen Milro for two years at Alabama, before winning the starting job in 2025. But plenty doubt it if he could carry. The load. In the field last season, he lit it up with 28 touchdowns and just five picks across 15 starts, though he cooled off late after looking.

1:02Like a Heisman lock early on. Analysts Landseerland even draws parallels to ex-Alebanistar Mac Jones. This bold move locks in Simpson as the Rams' future signal caller, shaking up the quarterback landscape for years to come.
