The Los Angeles Rams wagered their draft picks and their future for a chance to win right now. Their risk paid off, winning last season’s Super Bowl. However, now the target is on their back and there are fewer Rams draft picks to fill areas of need with young, cheap players.
Yes, the Rams have made some solid moves in NFL Free Agency. Still, there are holes left to be filled on this depth chart.
Let’s take a look at the full list of 2022 Rams draft picks. We will also review the Los Angeles Rams draft needs and free agency signings.

Los Angeles Rams Draft Needs
Offensive Tackle
With Andrew Whitworth finally deciding to hang it up, the Rams will be in search for a new left tackle. This offensive line hasn’t been that great, so losing a leader and consistent player like Whitworth is a larger loss than simply losing a single player. The group as a whole is at risk of being the reason the Rams struggle this season.
Offensive Guard
Austin Corbett left in free agency. So, it’s another hole along the offensive line that must be filled. The Rams need to establish the run and keep Matthew Stafford healthy for them to have success. Right now, I don’t know if they can do that.
Inside Linebacker
Troy Reeder is still a free agent, so he could return to the team. Still, this is a position group that is tough to trust, especially in pass coverage.
Other Positions of Need: Cornerback, Edge Rusher, Defensive Tackle, Running Back
