The Los Angeles Rams have completed two days of the 2026 NFL Draft, walking away with three picks so far. As the NFL’s annual selection process draws to a close on Saturday, the Rams still have four picks.
Here’s one final mock for 2026, with the team making bold choices to cap off a wild weekend.
Round 6, No. 207: Eli Heidenreich, FB, Navy
Heidenreich is such a tough evaluation because of the offense he plays, especially since he plays a variety of roles. The Rams love versatility on defense and based on recent selections like Terrance Ferguson, that mindset is also valued on offense.
Heidenreich’s ability to run routes out of the backfield gives the Rams a weapon who can instantly assist the passing attack, while providing an impact as a blocker and ball carrier. He would allow Sean McVay to finally place a fullback on the field, and he has Kyle Juszczyk-type of abilities. His hands are velvet soft, his ball tracking skills are grossly underrated, and he could likely play Special Teams as well.
Round 7, No. 232: Parker Brailsford, C, Alabama
Undersized player with an unquestionable heart, Brailsford controls what he can control and meets every hallmark of a Rams-type player. Another pick to strengthen the offensive line, the Rams are likely to say goodbye to several offensive linemen, and even if third-round pick Keagan Trost does become a starter, they’ll still need depth, depth Brailsford instantly provides.
There are a lot of questions about his game, but if Ryan Wendell gets his hands on him, his system of developing linemen who may not have the physical gifts of some of their counterparts should get Brailsford into a position where he will be able to contribute in some meaningful way.
Round 7, No. 251: Taylen Green, QB, Arkansas
The only way this will work is if Green is willing to change positions. His athleticism is off the charts, but the quarterback play simply isn’t there. In a McVay offense, where Green already understands coverages, he could be another versatile weapon that stretches the field.
Round 7, No. 252: Dillon Bell, WR, Georgia
Super underrated player who is physically strong and more than willing to use his strength to inflict pain on an opponent. Could be used as a great blocker on the inside, and his physicality would play well with the McVay offense’s use of mirroring the run and the pass.
