Like the Chiefs, the Los Angeles Rams’ offense has been so explosive, it’s often masked the various problems head coach Sean McVay has on the defensive side of things — somewhat troubling, considering all the star-power talent L.A. brought in during the offseason.
The Rams could use a pure edge rusher, although landing a 5-technique defensive lineman, like Alabama’s Raekwon Davis, wouldn’t be a bad idea at all.
At 6-foot-7 and 306 pounds, Davis’ pass-rushing prowess is certainly there, although he hasn’t been lighting things up in the sack department this season, boasting a mere half a sack over 11 games.
Don’t overlook his 8.5-sack 2017 campaign, though.
Davis needs to work a bit on his run-stuffing abilities still, although the ability to play inside should make things a bit easier in case the Rams decide not to bring back defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh, who is playing on a one-year deal.
OK, onto Round 2 of the 2019 NFL Draft mock.
