When I look at the OP's chart, what really stands out on offense for need to me remains both the OG and TE positions, I'm not convinced in the least that we have the in-house depth to show needed improvement here for 2022. And while comparing last year, our starting WR's of Kupp, Woods & Van Jefferson were bolstered by the acquisition of DeSean Jackson and later OBj. This year starts fairly similar to last with Kupp, Woods & Jefferson, although I guess we should substitute Atwell's name where Jackson was and hope he can deliver. OBj will likely arrive back later in 2022 than he did in 2021, but as long as the starters remain healthy, we should be fine with Odell joining us sometime prior to the play-offs.
On Defense, ... Edge rushing took a big hit, I'd still like to see improved depth at ILB, and both CB and S positions could stand for an upgrade. As has been pointed out by others, the Rams will be facing off next season against some very high quality AFC QB's & receivers, so having a quality pass rush on the front end of our defense as well as an improved DB situation can prepare us for what's to come.
Yes, Les Snead & McVay have a difficult challenge ahead if the Rams are to repeat, but if anyone can do it, they are the guys who can get it done.
jmo.
 
One thing is for sure… they need to add a pass rusher.. they lost their 2 best edge rushers. Obo is a better pure rusher than Floyd, imo.

Run game has me most concerned.

Contributed next to nothing in the playoffs versus TB & SF, then most unexpectedly against Cincy in the SB.

I believe upgrading to a road grader type RG pretty much fixes our RB situation. The Rams will also spend a mid to later round draft pick on a RB, no doubt in my mind.
