So this draft is basically just depth for this year.

I don't see any of them playing a down except for special teams maybe unless someone gets hurt.

Maybe the TE sees some action but probably only 10% of the plays.

Between Higbee's durability and Allen's limitations; plus McVay's likely commitment to a significant amount of three-TE-sets, I'm guessing Klare plays more than that.

I will be interested to see if the Rams actually have 5 TEs gameday-active some games.
That would be kind of wild; and would require one less player (than usual) active at two other positions.

In the 2021 Super Bowl, when the Rams played almost entirely three-WRs, they had just two TEs active; and, when Blanton was injured, they finished the game with just one TE (Bryce Hopkins).

I love the way Sean McVay is willing to evolve his offensive schemes ... the antithesis of Mike Martz.

As much as I can't stand him or his current team AJ Brown makes a lot of sense in regards to that tweet.
I don't think it'll happen but yeah think there's an outside chance still. We'll def be shopping for WR help after June 1st and there will be WR cuts coming after this draft and the talent influx.
 
Maybe it’s a guy like Boutte once the Pats trade for AJ. Or someone else they know will be cut or traded 6/1. More of a depth versus a star type

I like Boutte for the right price.

Adds the deep threat element and even though he's not a complete WR, you don't need him to be in this offense. Trade for him, let him play well and then possibly reap the benefit of a pick back when he gets a nice contract.

This draft was always going to be depth. There were no starting positions blatantly open.
 

Judging drafts right away, or arguably even inside a 3 year window, is a worthless exercise. But when your team is making "we're smarter than everyone else" picks... That's the type of shit that was a hallmark of our drafts back in the 90s when we sucked ass.

Seems like more often than not if most of your picks are of that nature, you're gonna end up with a poor draft.

I could realistically see all 4 players drafted after #13 playing significant snaps this year--oh and pick #29 playing every snap.
