Rams' Tight End Draft Focus

About this episode

The Los Angeles Rams are expected to draft a tight end to complement their heavy twelve and thirteen sets, following their successful use of multiple tight ends in the 2025 season. A study of twenty-five tight ends revealed top-tier elite fits like Kenyon Sadiq from Oregon and Eli Raridon from Notre Dame, who excel in blocking, versatility, and speed. Mid-round options like Justin Joly from NC State and day-three picks such as John Michael Gyllenborg or Tanner Koziol offer upside as receivers. The Rams aim to build on their new offensive identity and stay ahead in multi-tight end looks.

0:00It's April 2, I'm Cory with the story, and this is NFL News Today Football News powered by AI. The Los Angeles Rams switched up their game in the 2025 season, ditching their usual 11 personnel for heavy 12 and 13 sets, with multiple tight ends. They ran those packages more than almost anyone in the league, bringing back Tyler Higby, but facing contract years for Colby Parkinson and Davis. Alan makes total sense they'd eyedrafting another tight end to keep 5 on the roster. I broke down about 25 tight ends with a special Rams fit formula, grading traits the team loves like blocking, versatility, and speed. Top tier Elite Fits go to Kenyan Sedeek from Oregon at 9.2 and Eli Raridan from Notre Dame at 8.5. Sedeek's 439 speed and after the catch move scream game changer for Sean McVay schemes. This bucket has solid good fits, like Oscar Delp from Georgia at 8.3, plus Eli Stowers,

1:00Max Claire, and others around 8.2. Guys like Sam Roush and Jack Injuries shine in run blocking and pass pro perfect for those heavy sets the Rams leaned on last year. Mid-round options like Justin Jolie from NC State at 7.85 bring ball skills and red zone threat, while Day 3 picks such as John. Global Gillenborg or Tanner Casio offer upside as receivers. As profiled as receivers, lower fits don't match the Rams profile as well. With the draft heating up, expect the Rams to target these versatile tight ends to build on their new offensive identity and stay ahead in those. Multi-tied end looks.
