Rams' 2026 Draft Surprise: QB Ty Simpson Incoming?

As the 2026 NFL Draft approaches, the Los Angeles Rams are preparing to add significant talent to their roster. Currently holding the 13th overall pick, a valuable position they lacked last year, the team is in a strong spot. Their roster is already robust, with most offseason needs addressed, allowing flexibility to potentially trade down for more picks.

A significant potential move for the Rams in the first round could be selecting Ty Simpson, a quarterback from the University of Alabama. Simpson is recognized as the second-best quarterback prospect in the 2026 draft class. This selection would likely send shockwaves through the NFL and address the Rams' long-term quarterback needs, providing an opportunity for him to develop under experienced quarterback Matthew Stafford.
