In a recent article by Bleacher Report, they re-rank every NFL team based on how good their rookie class was now that the season is over. They have the Rams coming in at No. 2, only behind C.J. Stroud and the rest of the Houston Texans' rookies.
"The Rams wound up with a potential star at receiver, a capable starting guard and two foundational pieces to their pass-rush for the foreseeable future—and they didn't even have a first-round pick," Bleacher Report said. "This draft class is going to help make the Rams a threat for a while, and it bolsters general manager Les Snead's eventual Hall of Fame case."
Puka Nacua was the headliner of the class, as he was named a finalist for Offensive Rookie of the Year and broke his fair share of records.
Nacua and the rest of the rookie class were able to help the Rams make the playoffs this season after they finished with a 5-12 record in 2022, just one year after they won the Super Bowl.
Despite not making a pick in the first round, the Rams have laid a foundation for the future of their franchise with this past year's draft class. They are the best class the team has had in years, and will be key in helping the Rams contend next season.
