As this is what you think will the Rams will do rather then what I'd do, whether by trade (up or down) or by falling to 26:
1. Loveland
2. Golden
3. J.Simmons
4. M.Taylor
5. Amos
I’d love Golden or Loveland. I’m assuming they are gone by R1.20. If not put them at top of list.

I'm going to do it for different positions in the top five:

1. Luther Burden. (I don't think Egbuka or Golden make it to our pick, which is one of many reasons why I'm picking Burden.)
2. Shavon Revel Jr. (My favorite corner in this class, Will Johnson aside, and Johnson's not falling to us.)
3. Colston Loveland. (If his medicals drop him to #26, jump all over him. I still think he's going to possibly go higher, which is why I have the others on top.)
4. Carson Schwesinger. (Bold pick, but scouts have been saying he's a surprise first. Does everything really well, reminds me a bit of Kuechly.)
5. Donovan Ezeiruaku. (Only at the fifth because of the position he plays, but if he's there, and we like him, I hope we pull the trigger. Reminds me of a younger Robert Mathis.)

I’ve got Golden to Denver and Loveland to the Chargers.

I feel like what the Raiders do at #6 will be a trigger point. IMO they should trade down if possible.

He's been my favorite corner also, but, him not running a 40 and having a bad short shuttle has me a bit worried. I feel like it might have some in the NFL worried also. Add in the injury concerns.

I'd be pumped about either of the first 2 you listed. I know some aren't crazy about Burden but he's definitely got top notch talent as far as YAC goes. Revel to me would add speed and length that we don't have anywhere near on defense. I also love the fact that any tape you watch on him, he's making some great tackles in the run game.

Loveland at 26 would be a gift. Mason Taylor at 26 would be a gut punch. Ferguson would be a kill shot.
Whatever logic rabbit hole you'd have to go down to make yourself okay with Taylor or Ferguson(!) at 26 is exactly what we've been avoiding to draft as well as we have been.

If your guy at tight end isn't there you move around the board to another position and take the best player available.

Good chance Ferguson or similar will be there at 90.

A healthy Revel has been compared to Antonio Cromartie. But his health is in question, to the point that he’s considered a second round talent. That’s risky.

Then Tua doesn’t count ? I believe he makes more dough? The Rams had a chance for Jalen Hurt & took Cam Akers instead.
Jalen would drive McVay up a wall. McVay would lose his shit having to live outside the numbers.

Good QB - sometimes great - with big limitations. Those factors can co-exist.
