The Los Angeles Rams appear to be headed toward an all-in offseason here in 2026, as this team was within just one game of the Super Bowl in 2025 and have already made two major moves to shore up their main weakness, which is the secondary.

Earlier this week, LA and the Kansas City Chiefs agreed on a trade to send Trent McDuffie to LA for pick 29 in the 2026 NFL Draft and additional draft compensation. Even with this trade, the Rams still own the 13th pick in the NFL Draft thanks to the Atlanta Falcons.

Not only that, but on Friday morning, news broke that the Rams and standout safety Kam Curl agreed on a three-year extension. We haven't even yet hit free agency, and General Manager Les Snead is already wheeling and dealing, so Rams fans should buckle up for a majorly aggressive offseason, and this could continue in the 2026 NFL Draft.

Updated Los Angeles Rams mock draft following major secondary moves

13. Jermod McCoy, CB, Tennessee

The cornerback position is surely still a need for the LA Rams, as approaching free agency, all of Roger McCreary, Ahkello Witherspoon, Decobie Durant, and Derion Kendrick are set to be free agents.

Snead is also a GM who is simply not afraid to make any move and really could not care less about what the outsiders have to say. He trades first-round picks regularly and aggressively fills roster holes. Jermod McCoy is an extremely athletic, ball-hawking cornerback who is going to be one of the first defensive backs off the board in the NFL Draft.

There is a world where the Rams double-dip at this crucial position, as the defensive line is pretty much set, and this roster overall just does not have many other holes, so I would not rule out another cornerback.

61. Elijah Sarratt, WR, Indiana

With 200 receptions and nearly 3,000 yards in his collegiate career, Elijah Sarratt belongs in an NFL wide receiver room. He's not going to be an no. 1 target, but he more profiles as one of those third-down, possession type receivers who can haul in three or four passes a game.

With the spotlight being on Puna Nacua and Davante Adams, Sarratt is someone who could fly under the radar and carve out an immediate role.

93. Dametrious Crownover, OT, Texas A&M

The Rams could add to the offensive line and take Dametrious Crownover from Texas A&M. Right now, the unit is solid and among the better groups in the league, but it won't stay that way in the long-term unless Snead keeps taking stabs at draft picks. He seems to have found a bit of a gem in Warren McClendon, and Alaric Jackson is entrenched as the starting left tackle.

Crownover could be a future starter or even a high-end backup.

207. Adam Randall, RB, Clemson

The Rams really don't have a ton of size in the running back room right now, so adding some would be a good idea. Adam Randall is 6-2 and 230 pounds. He scored 10 touchdowns in 2025 and could be a bruising back for the team.

231. TJ Hall, CB, Iowa

Adding another cornerback to a revamped unit as some depth makes a ton of sense. After trading for McDuffie and snagging McCoy in this mock draft, the Rams use a late-round pick on TJ Hall from Iowa, continuing the secondary makeover.

250. Bryson Eason, DT, Tennessee

Now addressing the defensive line here, the Rams take Bryson Eason from Tennessee. Snead's best work in recent years has come along the defensive line. It feels like he hits on every single draft pick in the trenches on defense.

251. Eric Gentry, LB, USC

Finishing off this mock draft, the Rams grab some linebacker help in Eric Gentry from USC.
