The Los Angeles Rams do not have a first, second, or third round pick this year, but they will have a third round compensatory selection that kicks off their 2022 draft somewhere around #104. Then the Rams will make a lot of picks on day three and/or Les Snead will trade around and who knows where the team ends up but it's not too soon to start picturing a potential future of names we will be debating for ages.
Here are my first mock drafts for 2022 with some key free agents at offensive line. I tried very hard not to go more offensive line over other pressing needs! I went over to Mock Draft PFF, and Mock Draft Machine and I did four different mocks; two look similar with a few tweaks. The last one I let The Mock Draft Machine do an automatic picks for me, you will see them on the last list. Now I want to see some of you go try your hand at these mock drafts and share your results!
Mock Draft PFF #1:
#95 Marquis Hayes G OU 6'-5" 325
#133 Micah McFadden LB Indiana 6'-2" 240
#280 Damarri Mathis CB Pitt 5'-11" 197
#221 Kendrick Duncan Safety 6'-2" 206
#202 Max Borghi RB Washington St. 5'-10" 205
#275 Andrew Stueber T Michigan 6'7" 338
#258 Baylon Spector LB Clemson 6'-2" 230
#289 Brock Purdy QB Iowa St. 6'-0" 200
PROMPT: How do you feel about the Rams picking a guard with their first selection?
Mock Draft PFF #2:
#162 Alec Lindstrom C Boston College 6'-5" 305
#133 Micah McFadden
#280 Damarri Mathis
#243 Nick Ford C Utah 6'-5" 320 (I was projecting Ford to move over to Guard)
#202 Mat Borghi
#289 Brock Purdy
#159 P Matt Araiza (I'm sure he would be a favorite here!)
PROMPT: Is it okay if the Rams draft a PUNTER to replace Johnny Hekker this year?
Mock Draft Machine #3:
Alec Lindstrom
Micah McFadden
Myles Jones CB Texas A&M 6'-4" 190
Michael Clemons Edge Texas A&M 6'-5" 270
Marquis Hayes
Nick Grant Safety Virginia 6'-3" 190
Brock Purdy
Myron Cunningham T Arkansas 6'-6" 325
PROMPT: Is Alec Lindstrom the best center available in this range, you think? Should Rams focus on defense with the first pick?
Mock Draft Machine #4 (Simulator):
Channing Tindall LB Georgia 6'-1" 225
Tyrese Robinson G/RT OU 6"-3" 325
Alex Wright Edge UAB 6'-7" 270
Jean Delance T Florida 6'-4" 296
Damarion Williams CB Houston 5'-10" 180
Markquese Bell Safety Florida A&M 6'-2" 205
D'Vonte Price RB Florida International 6'-1" 200
Christopher Hinton DT Michigan 6'-4" 310
PROMPT: Did simulator do better than I did?
I tried to pick best available instead of who was available so I hope you enjoyed. Please let me know what YOU like about any of these mocks. What did you HATE??
