Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford could have some stiff competition in the NFC West among the opposing teams’ secondaries.
The division features some great players and emerging stars who could wreak havoc on the Rams’ passing attack this season. L.A., meanwhile, doesn’t have a great secondary unit. Although, that could change if the Rams decide to make a splashy move for someone like Jalen Ramsey.
Right now, though, the Rams don’t have a good secondary. But how does it compare to the rest of the division?
Here’s a look at our divisional cornerback rankings with the projected Week 1 starters.
4. Los Angeles Rams
L.A.’s secondary is one of their biggest weaknesses. Williams and Witherspoon are fine starters and Lake had a great 2024 but this group still finished near the bottom.
3. San Francisco 49ers
Lenoir is great, Green is solid and Brown is a good backup after coming from Seattle.
2. Arizona Cardinals
Arizona features an incredibly young squad that was already solid with Melton and Williams. Now add Johnson, who was a projected top-10 pick before a bad pre-draft process. That’s a great start for the Cardinals.
1. Seattle Seahawks
Seattle still has two of the better cornerback duos in the league between Woolen and Witherspoon. This unit was a borderline top-10 group a year, too.
