The Rams are picking much earlier than usual at 13th overall, so it\u2019s fair that fans are excited about the top pick.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Who should the Rams target at pick #93 in the third?<\/p>\n<p>16 targets within the range of #93<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">NFL consensus boards are a recent invention and are imperative to predicting draft outcomes and measuring whether teams reach or find bargains. Let\u2019s take 15 players around the Rams\u2019 pick at 93rd overall according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nflmockdraftdatabase.com\/big-boards\/2026\/consensus-big-board-2026\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NFL Mock Draft Database<\/a> and then further analyze the most intriguing options.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Most Rams fans probably would like to see the team take a receiver before the third round. LA cannot control how the board falls to them and would be wise to stick to best player available after they patched most of their holes in free agency. With that said, the receiver position probably has the most playing time up for grabs and a rookie could be well-suited to make a day one impact.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The three WR\u2019s from this list are all intriguing names. Bell is an aggressive ball winner. Bryce Lance is a gifted athlete and big target. I watched a lot of Deion Burks because of an infatuation with QB John Mateer, and Burks consistency flashed at Oklahoma. His overall production should be a concern related to his ceiling at the NFL level.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">This doesn\u2019t seem to be a pressing need for the Rams, though if the board brings you a wealth of options you may need to stay true. Kam Curl and Quentin Lake just signed new deals. Kamren Kinchens has two years left on his rookie deal. LA has been successful in identifying later round and undrafted talent that can contribute on defense and special teams. However, Kinchens is proof that if they draft a safety earlier than normal than can acquire a better player than they usually put on the field at this position.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">LA has a numbers problem at corner, although they\u2019ve shored up their starting lineup by adding Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson. Emmanuel Forbes is only one injury away from a first-string spot on the depth chart, and the Rams don\u2019t want that. They need to continue to add bodies at this position and groom a future starter so they can eventually get cheaper at the position.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Muhammed is 6-0, 190 lbs. That fits the Rams\u2019 usual size preference at corner. He doesn\u2019t get penalized often and excels in off coverage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Neal is a bigger player at 6-1, 206 lbs. and still runs a 4.49 40-yard dash. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/interactive\/the-beast-2026\/player\/julian-neal-arkansas-cornerback\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">He completed every drill at the combine<\/a> which few players can claim. Experience and quality of experience are both questions for the former Fresno State transfer. Neal has just 16 starts at the college level.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Do you feel like we\u2019ve talked the Los Angeles Rams\u2019 first round pick to death?
