The 2025 NFL Draft is officially over, and the Los Angeles Rams have wrapped up their draft class. The Rams selected just six players in the 2025 NFL Draft, which means their undrafted free agent count is likely going to be high once again.
Los Angeles built up a solid overall draft and reformed their front seven defensively. Who did the Rams draft this year?
Los Angeles Rams 2025 NFL Draft Class
Round 2, Pick 46: Terrance Ferguson, TE, Oregon
Los Angeles Rams' head coach Sean McVay has been rumored to want an impact tight end for several years now. In 2023, the Rams tried to move up and select Utah tight end Dalton Kincaid, and in 2024, they tried to do the same for Georgia tight end Brock Bowers. Both times, the Rams were denied.
Now, the Rams finally get their mismatch weapon in the middle of their offense. Ferguson can do a lot for their offense in terms of playing out wide and in the slot. Perhaps most importantly, Ferguson adds a dynamic element to a team desperately needing a red zone threat and a player who can open up the seams.
Oregon’s scheme limited some of his game, but the Rams' offense will take full advantage of his ability to run the seam and get open as a receiver. He won’t overwhelm defenders as a blocker, but he can at least lose slowly and can be a starting tight end right away for the team.
Round 3, Pick 90: Josaiah Stewart, EDGE, Michigan
As a pass rusher, Stewart wins with his good play strength and good use of hands. His very good quickness off the line caught plenty of blockers off guard with speed alone. Once engaged, Stewart flashed good use of hands, throwing spins, clubs, a cross-chop, and bull rush at blockers, with good ability to string moves together. He brings a surprisingly effective bull rush to collapse the pocket despite his size and brought a constantly hot motor to the quarterback.
He's another high-character addition for the Rams at a key area of need.
Round 4, Pick 117: Jarquez Hunter, RB, Auburn
The Rams traded up to select Jarquez Hunter. For a team looking to add explosiveness on offense, Hunter fits that bill. He finished second in the 2025 NFL Draft class in runs over 10+ yards in his career.
We'll see how he impacts the rest of the running back room, with Kyren Williams entering a contract year and Blake Corum coming off a significant injury that derailed his rookie year.
Round 5, Pick 148: Ty Hamilton, DT, Ohio State
The Rams wanted to keep their defensive line as one of the top in the country, and they did just that by stocking up here in the fifth round after another trade up in the draft. Ty Hamilton is a high-character, high-floor addition that should help the Rams plug the run up the middle and rotate with Kobie Turner, Braden Fiske, Poona Ford, and Tyler Davis.
Round 5, Pick 172: Chris Paul Jr., LB, Ole Miss
Chris Paul Jr is exactly the kind of player the Rams' defense was missing. He is undersized, but he plays like the Energizer bunny with very good competitive toughness, awareness, and good athleticism.
His size will turn him off some boards, but he is surprisingly physical despite it, and works off blockers better than some bigger linebackers in this class.
The Rams needed a linebacker who could hold up in coverage to pair with Omar Speights and Nate Landman, who are more early-down, run-defending linebackers.
Round 7, Pick 242: Konata Mumpfield, WR, Pitt
The Rams have a type at wide receiver, which is a good thing considering their success here over the years. Mumpfield is no different. A crafty route-runner, Mumpfield generates separation with ease often. He didn't test particularly fast, but turn on the film and you'll see a player getting open and creating windows for his quarterback.
