OTC currently shows the Rams at 15.6M of cap room for 24', and 40M for 25'.
The caveat for next year is it only has 45 players under contract with all the cuts yesterday. So in 25' the effective cap space would currently be projected at approx 34M. (7 additonal 900k salaries added for end of year additions).
Now these numbers will likley be lowered after some in season additions, incentives paid out, etc... However, they will have around $40-44M to spend next year. And it could be more than that if say Havenstein or Kupp retire. Kupp save's $15M with a post June retirement (what they did with Donald) and Havenstein saves $8M
So to summarize, they can be very active next year and it's why I said they will not get any comp picks in 26'. They only had 3 guys worthy of comp pick contracts, Jones, Tutu, and BB. Maybe Garrapolo as well. The Rams would have brought in more players to offsett those 4 potential losses.
