Rams' Top WR Draft Picks in 2026

About this episode

The Los Angeles Rams are focusing on wide receivers in the 2026 NFL Draft, with potential picks at the 13th overall spot and on day two. An analyst evaluated forty prospects using a Rams-specific fit formula, grading traits like route running, blocking, and versatility. Top-tier fits include Makai Lemon from USC, Carnell Tate, Germie Bernard, and Jordyn Tyson, all scoring around 8.9. Antonio Williams from Clemson and KC Concepcion from Texas A&M also impress with their smooth routes, speed, and return skills. However, Lemons slot style may limit Puka Nacuas snaps.
