On the third day of the NFL draft, the champs selected four defensive backs and reacquired a key pass defender from that 2020 juggernaut that led the league in total defense.
While they took their usual assortment of late-draft flyers on unsung or flawed prospects Saturday, the Rams' biggest addition of Day 3 could turn out to be the return of defensive back Troy Hill. Los Angeles traded a fifth-round pick in 2023 to Cleveland for the dependable slot defender who played a key role on the Rams' defense from 2016-20.
With back-to-back picks in the sixth round, the Rams grabbed sturdy UCLA safety Quentin Lake and Georgia cornerback Derion Kendrick, a former Clemson receiver who won two national championships in a checkered college career. Bruss could end up as the Rams' starting right guard if he wins his camp competition. The rest of Los Angeles' draft class is likely to be depth for a team with plenty of veteran talent returning for another title chase.
"I was super excited in a way I can't even explain," said Williams, who had back-to-back 1,000-yard rushing seasons with the Irish before turning pro.The Rams struggled to replace Hill last season with a combination of David Long, rookie Robert Rochell and Dont'e Deayon. LA's needs in the secondary are even more pronounced now after the free-agent departure of starting cornerback Darious Williams for Jacksonville.
