The Los Angeles Rams, holding the 13th pick from a trade with Atlanta, must decide whether to address their future at quarterback despite having reigning NFL MVP Matthew Stafford. Stafford, who considered retirement but committed to 2026, represents a year-to-year proposition at age 38.
With arguably the NFL's best roster and Super Bowl favorite status, the Rams could target QB Ty Simpson, though his inexperience (15 college starts) suggests he'd benefit from sitting behind Stafford. The lack of a second first-round pick until No. 61 makes this selection crucial for long-term QB planning.
