Unless Ashton Jeanty miraculously falls into the Rams’ lap at No. 26, which is absolutely not going to happen, Los Angeles should pass on every running back in the first round. As good as Henderson is, including his ability to impact the game as a receiver, the Rams don’t need to spend a first-round pick on a running back.

There were reports that QB Matthew Stafford could potentially leave Los Angeles, but he agreed to a restructured contract in February. While the Rams released Super Bowl LVI MVP Cooper Kupp, they brought in Davante Adams to take his place alongside Puka Nacua.

Bleacher Report's Kristopher Knox offered a possible trade-up scenario for the Rams to do just that in the 2025 NFL Draft. Knox suggested the Rams sent the Nos. 26, 90 and 201 to the Denver Broncos to move up six spots to the No. 20 pick. He then wrote that the Rams should take Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough.
