Erin Coscarelli and Rob Havenstein are joined by The Athletic's Rams beat writer Nate Atkins to break down Los Angeles' 2026 NFL Draft. Nate reveals the Ty Simpson pick at #13 was months in the making — part of a deliberate plan to secure a succession quarterback behind Matthew Stafford while simultaneously freeing up future first-round picks for aggressive trades, with the Rams effectively treating the first round as two moves: the #29 pick to land Trent McDuffie, and #13 on their QB of the future. Rob addresses why the Stafford-Simpson dynamic won't disrupt the locker room, and the group agrees the team's biggest impact moves may still be coming at the trade deadline.

Erin Coscarelli is joined by Ryan Anderson and Paige Dimakos, CEO of The Draft Network, to break down the Rams' 2026 draft strategy two weeks out from Pittsburgh. With Puka Nacua's situation now shifting the calculus, Paige expects the Rams to use pick 13 on the best receiver on their board — though she warns it may not be the obvious name — while also making a strong case for Kenyon Sadiq if the Oregon tight end slips.
