Do we already have WR3?

We need a WR2B in case of injury. Especially for the playoffs.
And I'm sure we have one on the roster but won't find out who unless #1 or #2 go down.

Against Jacksonville, with Puka out, we went to 13P and Stafford targeted 10 different receivers.
With Adams out he targeted 9, 7 and 9 the last 3 games.
One game Mumpfield was the #2 target (8T, 3 rec., 40 yds) and one game Xavier was the #3 target (6T, 4 rec, 67 yds). That equates to 14 targets, 7 rec, 107 yds (15.2 yds/rec).

I was convinced we would have picked someone up by now due to Adams' age. The fact that we haven't tells me at least one of Mumpfield, Xavier, Daniels, or Whittington stepped it up in camp.
 
That is my concern. Next year, ideally, we would draft a WR and LT one/two but dont have the picks
Is it possible we already have the LT? Trost?
Is it possible we already have the WR? Daniels?

I suppose it's possible we have neither and it's also possible we have both. As well as one or the other.

In any event, in next year's draft we have a 2nd rounder (#64 being the lowest that can be), a 4th rounder, 5th rounder and 6th rounder. If we do well and Nate Scheelhaase is given a HC job, we'll have a 3rd rounder too. I think the Rams have shown they don't need a 1st rounder to find talent from 2 through 7. And with the roster we have, as well as the roster spots available every year, 5 picks is more than we need.

In some ways, having so few draft picks every year has made our scouting department sharper, look deeper, & turn over every rock looking for talent.
 
Love the receiver room this year.

But to those who think we can replace Davante from within next year... ain't gonna happen.

Davante is a HOF player. Whittington is decent, Mumpfield had a solid start, and Daniels has potential. But I seriously doubt that McVay would trust any of those guys to be WR2 in 2027.

Well if you want to WORRY about 2027.

Think PUKA !!! I won’t have any other 2 Ram WR’s on my fantasy team.

Mumpfield is called the prodigy by Davante. There were times last season Ferguson & Mumpfield both had a lot of opportunities to make BIG PLAYS. There might be better results in 2026 ?

Really ?? I’d say there’s more to it & WHY the results are SO solid !!

The Rams coaching tree under Sean Mcvay is pretty impressive.
Finding players that FIT ? There is good communication of NEED & Desire. The NCAA has changed a lot as well.
