DRAFT 2026 NFL Draft: Rounds 2-3

Also? I'm glad that the Cardinals were stupid enough to select Beck in the third round. Even with Love, Harrison Jr., McBride, Wilson and others, he'll never succeed; he'll throw many picks and then throw his offensive players under the bus.

One thing we should all be aware of is that when it comes to being a weapon across the middle in this offense it's not about raw speed. Kupp was never fast, Puka really isn't either. But they're all quick and have great instincts in the pattern plus being smooth movers.

I didn't really watch Klare live only highlights or Ohio State games casually, but when you watch him he is smooth, not lumbering at all, looks like a receiver with the ball. Lets get him up to speed and ob the field

 

[El Chapo Jr]

I understand how that works. The Rams aren’t going to run 13(one WR) all year, and they shouldn’t. None of these TE’s are special pass catchers. The blocking is decent. Again though, not special.

If that’s the plan they should’ve traded up for an elite RB to run behind all these TE’s

Regardless of the personnel they focus on, We are going to regret going into the season with Nacua, Adams and JAG’s if that’s the plan.

The Rams felt their pass rush was good enough to sit on the CB’s we had. We know how that went.

I think this thought of we have no needs is crazy. We need a better pass weapon after Nacua and Adams. If one of them goes down, our offense is going to suffer.

 

[Mojo Ram]

Watch the change of direction skills. You'll see what's special about him. Crazy fluidity and agility for a guy who is 6'5" 245.

I’ll go through all of that. I spent four hrs on Simpson last night. I came away impressed and optimistic. Like the player, don’t like the pick.

 

[HighDesertRam]

Which running back does Snead pick in the third?

Is there another Auburn RB out there we can choose?

 

[I like Rams]

So its completely obvious now that McVay wanted Sadiq and Snead wanted Simpson. McVay lost in "paper, rock, scissors" so Snead got Simpson and McVay had to settle for Klare. It makes so much sense now.

Still a lot of good players who could fall to #93.

...And Zachariah Branch, I suppose.

 

[Gandalf]

Still some decent WR on the board, but who knows what we end up picking next.

What are thoughts on Malachi Fields WR Notre Dame? I'm hoping the Rams get him, but he may be gone by then.

 

[ReekofRams]

Wow, this draft sure has been super exciting!

 

[Spider2YB]

Ferguson seems like a better prospect to me and it took him til the back half of the season before he saw the field consistently. If the tight end room stays healthy, I’m skeptical how much Klare sees the field in 2026.

 

[MadGoat]

In this offense, TE is a position that's going to need a year plus to develop, similar to Ferg last year. That puts the Rams in a better spot next year when they lose one or two guys. I liked Klare before the Rams took him. He doesn't have to be a one dimensional guy like Stowers who went way ahead of him. The Jags and Texans TE picks before Klare were much worse prospects.

 

[Allen2McVay]

The Draft is alot like Christmas

And the Rams are drafting warm socks!

He fell behind when he got injured and missed time in either mini or training camp or something.

 

[Mojo Ram]

Gonna start running 14 personnel on first downs.

Why? So Kyren can get ankle tackled 7 yrds downfield running thru a gaping hole?

I could use a chill pill.

Agreed on the latter, and I do like Klare as a prospect, probably was TE#2 - and maybe even TE#1 - in my eyes (because Stowers is more of a big receiver, and I feel that Sadiq is more of an athlete playing tight end.). I just don't entirely see the fit with Parkinson (whom we could very well re-sign), Ferguson, and Allen (also of whom we could very well re-sign), and after already signing Higbee for two more years this year.

Ferguson saw about 30% snap share, and that was really due to Higbee's injury. I'm guessing Klare will come in a little lower unless there's another injury.

Yeah - who wants a 7 yard gain?

 

[Stl2La]

Not by 'all accounts'.

I have been watching ESPN's coverage with Greenberg hosting and commentary/evaluation by Kiper, Riddick and McFarland.

Klare was literally the ONLY 2nd round selection they were less than complimentary about, suggesting he was a Reach.

A lot's of WR's are left, if that is a target. Williams was the 9th out of 15-20 that are solid prospects
