Rams mock draft 1.0: Setting aside the Matthew Stafford situation and hitting needs first

Will the Rams target left tackle in Round 1 if they need one? What pass-catcher options out there could fit well with Sean McVay's offense?

1. Josh Conerly Jr., OT, Oregon
3. Harold Fannin Jr., TE, Bowling Green
3. Joshua Farmer, DT, Florida State
4. Mello Dotson, CB, Kansas
6. Ja'Corey Brooks, Louisville
6. Kobe King, ILB, Penn State
6. Jay Higgins, ILB, Iowa

Like all the players but interesting a WR waited until the 6th and 2 ILB.

Maybe I’m reading too much into the tea leaves and especially JRs mock, but it seems like it’s more likely we let Alaric move to instead of giving him a huge contract. If so, LOT obviously is the top draft priority.

Maybe it makes sense too if we are thinking about future. Having too much money into the OL now might be unwise. Getting a cheap, young LOT as a main piece for forward for the future makes sense. Maybe even more so if we move off of Stafford - since we’re not pushing tons of chips for this season.

I take it that means we may let Alaric Jackson walk? I'm not so sure about that decision.

I think if we let Jackson hit free agency the Patriots offer him franchise money if not a bit more.
