The Los Angeles Rams have wrapped up their 2025 NFL Draft class, setting themselves up well for another playoff push this season.
However, the future of the franchise is still up in the air after the team elected not to select a quarterback or offensive tackle in 2025, leaving the heir to Matthew Stafford and Rob Havenstein uncertain.
The Rams have two first-round picks next year, courtesy of their trade down with the Atlanta Falcons in the 2025 NFL Draft. How can they attack the 2026 NFL Draft to shape the future of their franchise?

Los Angeles Rams 2026 NFL Mock Draft
Pick 11 (via ATL): LaNorris Sellers, QB, South Carolina
The Rams' type at quarterback is pretty unknown, since McVay has never really had a chance to develop a rookie quarterback. However, I have a hard time imagining Sean McVay not falling for a player like Sellers, who offers some fantastic pocket mobility and poise, as well as a strong profile in the quick game and over the middle.
And, he can do this.
Sellers brings the mobility that the Rams have been lacking (something McVay has been after since he coached RG3 over a decade ago) while also bringing a fairly strong floor as a passer. He has all the ability in the world to be the face of the franchise for a decade.
Pick 24: Caleb Lomu, OT, Utah
The Rams didn't draft an offensive tackle this year, a risky move with right tackle Rob Havenstein's durability and age. They can't afford to pass one more time here with a rookie quarterback in the fold.
Lost in the buzz about his teammate Spencer Fano is Caleb Lomu, who arguably might have a better ceiling (and draft stock). Lomu brings some fantastic movement skills and pass protection ability to his game. Either he or Alaric Jackson would have to switch from left to right tackle, but that move would be well worth it in the long run for the Rams.
