With the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft about a month away, the Los Angeles Rams project to be one of the more intriguing teams to watch out for.

After Aaron Donald announced his retirement after 10 seasons with the Rams, the organization has a glaring hole along their defensive line. The secondary could also use reinforcements as veteran cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon is a free agent while Jordan Fuller signed with the Carolina Panthers in free agency.

There are a number of directions Los Angeles can go in with their draft picks, especially given they’ll have their own first-round pick for the first time since 2016 when they took Jared Goff No. 1 overall. Defense is a popular path forward for the team in most mock drafts and it’ll be interesting to see if they do go that route.

Meanwhile, players currently on the roster like Ernest Jones are eligible for a contract extension and general manager Les Snead revealed it’s likely that the linebacker will go into the 2024 season playing on the final year of his rookie deal, via Stu Jackson of TheRams.com:
