I'm thinking the team brings in a veteran pass rusher to help our young olb depth. I think we need this to be complete .

Vets that that can contribute will be cut or maybe we can trade a late round pick ?

I'm right outside of buffalo so all I hear is criticism of Shaq Lawson . I think he would be perfect for this defense wade runs.

Any thoughts? Or are we ok with our guys ?

Ebukam seems like an lock to start and by the way he is a beast in the madden !

The Rams currently have the least cap space in the league - in fact, significantly less than is normally carried into the season to cover injury replacements. https://overthecap.com/salary-cap/los-angeles-rams/

Barring another significant move to reduce cap hits, I don't think the Rams can add anybody else.
 
I think the Rams will have to run with what they have. They probably woulda added Barwin if they felt the needed a veteran presence.

Barwin is no longer a pass rusher, which is why the Rams didn't bring him back this year.
 
Not only do I not see us needing a vet at olb I don’t see us spending any of our previous little cap money on the position. Otherwise Connor Barwin would be here and not with the Giants.

No, he clearly is not what he once was. But he is a veteran some teams look for on the field and in the locker room. I think they feel ok with what they have on the roster right now. Unproven talent but they have some speed at the position.
