    Per Spotrac.com, the Rams currently boast 68 players on the roster. With 10 more rookies added via the draft, the team has 12 open slots to address via unsigned college free agents in the aftermath. The Rams have signed much greater numbers after the draft in the past. But because the team has made significant strides in addressing huge roster needs already, the shopping list for undrafted free agents is truly best players available and any sparkly player who may have a specific niche or role in 2024.

    Total players to be signed for 90 man roster (after draft picks): 6

    Sam Wiglusz played three seasons with Ohio State before closing out two seasons on the Ohio Bobcats. He stands 5-foot-11 and weighs 188 pounds. He does offer potential on special teams, having served as both punt and kickoff returner.

    David Olajiga is a 6-foot-3 287 pound defensive tackle out of Central Missouri. In 2023, he put up 41 tackles, 8.0 tackles for a loss, 4.5 sacks, He had seven quarterback hits. But the intriguing stat is the fact that he blocked three kicks in 2023

    Nouredin Nouili is an interior offensive lineman who stands 6-foot-3 and weighs 310 pounds. He is a German native, but who has the size and prowess to compete for a slot on the LA Rams

    He is getting a $20,000 signing bonus

    Oklahoma State DE Anthony Goodlow — He is getting a $20,000 signing bonus

    from https://pistolsfiringblog.com/former-oklahoma-state-defensive-end-anthony-goodlow-signs-with-rams-as-undrafted-free-agent/

    Goodlow was immediately a 6-foot-5, 280-pound force on OSU’s defensive line. He started nine of the Cowboys’ last 10 games in 2023. Goodlow led OSU’s defensive line with 42 tackles, as well as seven tackles for loss and three sacks. He had a season-high six tackles in OSU’s win over Cincinnati. Goodlow also recorded at least one tackle in all but the first game of the season.

    from https://pokesreport.com/s/5804/oklahoma-state-undrafted-rookie-free-agent-tracker

    Goodlow played in all 14 games this past season for the Pokes after transferring from NEO, starting nine of the final 10 games. He led all Cowboy defensive linemen with 42 total tackles on the season, which included 18 solo stops. He also recorded 7.0 tackles for loss, which was fourth on the team, all numbers which earned him honorable mentions from the Big 12 coaches for Defensive Lineman of the Year, Defensive Newcomer of the Year and All-Big 12

    Draft analyst Lance Zierlein wrote: “Goodlow has good size and great length but is much more eventual than sudden in his movements. He rarely wins in gaps and is unable to create early threats as an upfield rusher. He’s not a natural knee-bender, so he has a hard time setting a firm anchor at the point of attack. He does have the natural strength to battle and strain. Goodlow is below average as a reduced rusher inside, so he might have to compete for a backup spot as an odd-front defensive end to make a squad.”

    DB Josh Wallace, Mich.

    from https://theramswire.usatoday.com/lists/rams-undrafted-rookies-free-agents-2024-facts-stats/

    Allowed only 21 catches and 0 TDs last season

    In his first season at Michigan, Wallace shined in coverage. He allowed a passer rating of only 66.2 despite not intercepting a pass. He also didn’t give up a touchdown all year in 367 coverage snaps, surrendering only 21 total receptions.

    Overview

    Draftable prospect with slightly undersized frame as a wide cornerback. Wallace was a three-time captain at UMass before transferring to Michigan. He’s a natural leader with a history of searching out challenges and putting in the work to succeed. He plays with adequate athleticism in man but lacks the size and length to control bigger NFL targets. Wallace is a natural route-reader, which creates opportunities for early jumps and pass breakups but an average closing burst limits his takeaway total. He’s smart, can play in a variety of cover schemes and was a good tackle-finisher at Michigan. Wallace does his job and has the intangibles to compete for a backup spot but needs to put a decent 40-yard dash time on the board.

    Strengths

    • Three-time team captain at UMass before transferring.
    • Smart football player with good situational awareness.
    • Clean footwork with ability to retrace steps in pedal and drive.
    • Extensive game experience has bolstered route recognition.
    • Good field balance and route pass-offs as zone defender.
    • Supports run with proper positioning and effort to tackle.

    Weaknesses

    • Low career interception total (3) relative to on-ball production (29 breakups).
    • Content to knock it away instead of trying to take it away at times.
    • Plays with slight drift when changing direction on the move.
    • Scouts are concerned about his long speed.
    • Comes in a little hot as a downhill tackler.

    from https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Josh-Wallace-CB-UMass’

    Wallace transferred to Michigan where as a fifth year senior for the Wolverines in 2023 Wallace played in 14 games and took part in 544 snaps for the Wolverines. He logged 26 tackles, 8 assists, and made 12 stops. In coverage Wallace had 3 pass breakups, no interceptions, and surrendered QB rating when targetted of 64.0.

    SCOUTING REPORT: STRENGTHS
    • Can get up under a receiver’s chin and has the speed to flip his hips and run downfield. Wallace has the quick and surprisingly powerful hands to jostle receivers early. But he’s at his best peeking into the backfield.
    • Aware zone cornerback who is also adept in man coverage, flashing physical hand punch at the line and straight-line speed to stay with receivers downfield.
    • Alert defender for zone coverage, showing good understanding of route progressions occurring behind him and a quick burst downhill to break on underneath passes in front of him.
    • Top-end speed is good and is capable of turning and running in press coverage. He also shows good instincts when sitting back in zone and looking into the backfield.
    • Stays low in his backpedal and shows the click-and-close ability to break up plays in front of him. Wallace can move well laterally and shows excellent instincts when looking into the backfield in zone coverage.
    • He’s also very good in zone coverage, showing a great understanding of routes and the ability to close quickly.
    SCOUTING REPORT: WEAKNESSES
    • Rght now he’s only capable of playing in trail position, and even then he’d likely be draw a lot of flags.
    • Fails to maintain inside technique in man coverage. Not a press corner.
    • Like a lot of collegiate corners, Wallace has a tendency to get grabby, something that will have to be coached out of him.

    One year starter at Michigan with three years starting at UMass. Transferred to Michigan in 2023 as a graduate student. Honourable mention all Big Ten in 2023 has a somewhat blender but muscular frame. Excellent football IQ he easily mastered Michigan’s multiple zone concepts. Played quarters both press and off along with hard corner cover two, cover three and split coverage. Showed off and press man skill mostly as part of the quarters package. Can be physical impress with hands on to disrupt the release. As a hard corner has solid reroute skill to not allow a receiver a clean release. Outstanding route recognition, he balances overlapping zones and can pass off a route to pick up the threat to his out outside zone. In off coverage has a footed pedal to maintain cushion. Excellent footwork; times moves to lateral and turn and run to stay in phase with vertical release. Has lateral agility to react to threats and quickly close void areas between zones. Sees the quarterback delivery, key and receivers showing a quick break and drive out of a pedal with the ball in the air. He battles the Catchpoint with several pass breaks. Notable run supportability as he gets his hands on blockers and separates. Gives a little ground at times, but makes plays. Fundamentally sound, gather wrap up and tackler. Has not been a factor turnovers as he has been more apt to break up a pass then intercept. Lack of closing burst is a factor. A little under and speed is a question. His best fit may be a nickel in a heavy scheme. 2023 stats.: 33T, 2TFL, 4 PBU, 1 FF.

    [note: at this point I am just dumping stuff in here as it pops up. There might be some repetition from earlier posts in the thread. It would take a lot to edit right now it all to avoid repetition, so as of now I am just dumping-in, not editing-out]

    Ohio WR Sam Wiglusz
    Sam Wiglusz played three seasons with Ohio State before closing out two seasons on the Ohio Bobcats. He stands 5-foot-11 and weighs 188 pounds. He does offer potential on special teams, having served as both punt and kickoff returner.

    Central Missouri DT David Olajiga
    David Olajiga is a 6-foot-3 287 pound defensive tackle out of Central Missouri. In 2023, he put up 41 tackles, 8.0 tackles for a loss, 4.5 sacks, He had seven quarterback hits. But the intriguing stat is the fact that he blocked three kicks in 2023

    Nebraska guard Nouredin Nouili
    Nouredin Nouili is an interior offensive lineman who stands 6-foot-3 and weighs 310 pounds. He is a German native, but who has the size and prowess to compete for a slot on the LA Rams

    USC interior offensive lineman Justin Dedich
    Justin Dedich is a 6-foot-2 292-pound offensive center who spent years handing off and protecting USC quarterback Caleb Williams. Decich is good enough to offer enough to work with, but so far has not flipped the switch to draft analysts to see NFL starter. But, he did play in a major college football program, and he faced some of the toughest opponents in NCAA football.

    Oklahoma State DE Anthony Goodlow
    Did the Rams find another defensive end who will eventually start for them after the draft? Well, that could be the case for Oklahoma State DE Anthony Goodlow. For starters, the Rams truly want him in the building, as he is getting a $20,000 signing bonus. He stands 6-foot-4 and weighs 283 pounds, but he is a versatile defender who has played as an outside linebacker, defensive tackle, and defensive end. I like his fit at the defensive end. He is exactly the type of hard-working passionate player who develops for this defense. Coach Giff Smith gets another great defensive lineman to work with.

    LSU LB Omar Speights
    Omar Speights is an interior linebacker who started for five seasons in NCAA football. He has been a productive player, averaging over 70 tackles, 5.0 tackles for a loss, 1.0 sacks, and nearly 1.0 interceptions in each of the past five seasons. He stands 6-foot-0 and weighs 229 pounds, so he is large enough to do will at the position. He is a sure-handed tackler, wraps up and drops with textbook precision.

    Washington DT Tuli Letuligasenoa
    The Rams have really landed some quality reserves with this year’s undrafted free agent class. Washington defensive tackle Tuli Letuligasenoa is another solid competitor. Standing 6-foot-1 and weighing 301 pounds, Letuligasenoa has the same size and background as former Rams NT Greg Gaines. He is a blocker gobbler, at guy who takes on a maximum number of blockers to free up his teammates. Even with that unenviable role, he still manages to put up solid numbers, and even shows flashes of a promising pass rush.

    Kansas S Kenny Logan
    Kansas defensive back Kenny Logan is one of the most versatile defensive backs from this rookie class. Standing 5-foot-10 and weighing in at 213 pounds, he is the type of player who can be sent in as a slot corner, a safety, or even as an outside corner in a pinch, and be confident that he can make plays. If the team is looking for a special team returner, Kenny Logan is the guy. He has some experience returning punts, and extensive experience returning kickoffs. He has even returned a kickoff for a touchdown.

    Michigan DB Josh Wallace
    Michigan defensive back Josh Wallace competed throughout his college football career. But he joined the Michigan Wolverines in his final season, putting an exclamation point on his NFL prospects. He is a high character guy who has solid numbers and always seems to get his hands in there to knock the pass away. He didn’t have the level of interceptions that some scouts wanted to see, but his ability to break up passes is a coach pleaser nevertheless. He stands 5-foot-11 and weighs 185 pounds. He will need to add about 10 pounds of muscle armor to raise his durablity in the NFL, but he has potential.

    Oklahoma WR Drake Stoops
    The LA Rams may be loaded at the wide receiver position, but Oklahoma WR Drake Stoops hopes that therre is room for one more. If he is as productive in the pros as he was in college, that could be arranged. Standing 5-foot-10 and weighing 190 pounds, Stoops is not the guy who will beat you with his size. But he really doesn’t need to. He ran a 4.67-second 40-yard dash, placing him in the category of smaller, swift receivers like former Buffalo Bills WR Cole Beasley.

    Augustana University OT Blake Larson
    While there is not a lot of information readily available over Augustana offensive tackle Blake Larso, I know that he is every bit the part in terms of size. He stats 6-foot-6, weighs 311 pounds, and has a massive stretch armstrong reach, thanks to an 84-inch wingspan

    Louisiana TE Neal Johnson
    Lightly scouted Louisiana tight end Neal Johnson is a very intriguing weapon in this offense. Standing 6-foot-4 and weight 244 pounds, Johnson has been a very effective weapon in college, putting up consistently good numbers.

    Los Angeles RamsDrake Stoops, WR, Oklahoma

    The son of legendary coach Bob Stoops, Drake Stoops’ sluggish 4.71 40 time will fit in perfectly with the Rams. (Cooper Kupp famously ran a 4.62; Puka Nacua hit only 4.57.) Quicker than fast and totally fearless, the 5-9, 186-pound Stoops is an outstanding route runner who turned down FBS scholarship offers to walk on at his dad’s former school. He wound up making 164 catches for nearly 2,000 yards in six years. He’ll do anything he’s asked, at max effort.

Huge hands (10 3/8”) and adequate length (33 3/8”) surprisingly coordinated with quick feet. Needs a lot of technique work and a pro strength/conditioning program.

    Meeting the Rams undrafted free agents

    https://www.turfshowtimes.com/2024/4/30/24144440/la-rams-undrafted-free-agent-prospects

    Although the Los Angeles Rams have not yet released an official list of undrafted free agent signings, reports are coming in fast and furious. L.A.’s rumored signings are being tracked here at TST and when officially announced, the players can be reviewed with some depth.

    Today, let’s make a quick introduction and just a peek at their backgrounds. When officially signed, the Rams 2024 draft and UDFA class will bring the roster up to 87 players under contract and leave the team three short of the 90-man limit.

    Offense

    WR Drake Stoops- Oklahoma. 5’ 10” 180 lb.

    Grew up around college football as a coach’s son. Played a lot of special teams as part of a 62 game college career. Stoops was cited for his quickness and route running at the Shrine Bowl. His Pro Day testing numbers were not impressive, 4.71 forty, 30” vertical, 8’ 11” broad, eight bench reps, 4.24 shuttle, and 7.01 3cone.

    WR Sam Wiglusz- Ohio 5’ 10 5/8” 189 lb.

    Former Ohio State walk-on, played in 13 games over two seasons, mostly special teams, before transferring. As a Bobcat, caught 129 balls in 26 games for 1537 yards and 14 touchdowns. His athletic testing numbers were ho-hum, 4.62 forty, 1.63 split, 32.5 vertical, 9’ 10” broad, 11 reps on the bench, and 4.31 shuttle. Did post a very good 6.84 3cone.

    WR JJ Lapp- Cortland St. 6’ 1 190 lb.

    Was the deep threat for D3 National Champions last fall. Hauled in 147 passes with 32 touchdowns and averaged 18.7 yards per catch over 46 games. As you would guess, not a lot of film, but he appears to be of good size, length, and speed compared to his collegiate competition.

    TE Neal Johnson- UL, Lafayette 6’ 3 5/8” 245 lb.

    High school QB was receiving part of a two TE rotation. On film, he looks to have good length and hands, plays fluid and finishes physically. At his Pro Day, he timed a 4.77 forty with 1.63 split, leapt a 28” vertical and 9’ 3” broad, put up 12 reps on the bench, and shimmied through a 4.41 shuttle and 7.06 3cone.

    G/C Justin Dedich- USC 6’ 2” 301 lb.

    Stockily built with a strong upper body. Primarily played guard until starting 13 games at center in 2023, totaled 48 games in six seasons. Plays high, which keeps him from being a downhill drive blocker and creates problems setting an anchor, although overall, he’s a good pass blocker. Has good feet and uses them to reach and torque defenders.

    T Blake Larson- Augustana 6’6” 311 lb.

    One of the top prospects in Division2, dominatling player with size and athleticism, reportedly has 84” wingspan. Played on both left and right sides. Huge hands (10 3/8”) and adequate length (33 3/8”) surprisingly coordinated with quick feet. Needs a lot of technique work and a pro strength/conditioning program.

    Defense

    CB Josh Wallace- Michigan 5’ 11” 185 lb.

    Came to Ann Arbor as a graduate transfer after three seasons at UMASS. Can play both inside and out, Wallace is good zone coverage player, who despite his size, is willing in run support. A little lacking in top speed, but solid athletically otherwise and has good length. A “Steady Freddy” player rather than playmaker.

    CB Cam Lampkin- Washington State 5’ 9 3/4” 181 lb.

    Played two season’s at Wazzou, started at Utah State. Experienced both out wide and in the slot. Very aggressive play style in coverage and run support despite size and length limitations. Adequate testing at Pro Day, 4.58 forty, 34.5” vertical, 10’ broad, 4.33 shuttle, 7.09 3cone, and 11 reps on the bench.

    S Jaylen McCullough- Tennessee 6’ 202 lb.

    Highly experienced, 51 starts in 60 college games. Pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault in 2022, fined $20k and placed on one year probation. High-effort player with physical play style, best suited underneath. Plays faster than his Pro Day testing, 4.69 forty, 32” vertical, 9’ 7” broad, 4.58 shuttle, and 7.52 3cone. stellar 17 reps on bench.

    S Kenny Logan- Kansas 5’ 10” 213 lb.

    Experienced, productive safety that lined up all over the formation and was also a valued special teams performer. Returned 61 kickoffs for a 23.7 yard average and played multiple coverage/return units. Quicker than fast with good change of direction, likely limited to play around the line of scrimmage. Good in run support and zone coverage.

    ILB Omar Speights- LSU 6’ 229 lb.

    Four years as a full-time starter, three at Oregon State and his final at LSU. Effort-based prospect who’s just short of having the requisite size, length, physicallity and read/react skills of an NFL linebacker. Pretty good athletic testing numbers. Good form tackler around the line and appears to be fluid in pass coverage.

    DE Anthony Goodlow- Oklahoma State 6’ 4 1/4” 283 lb.

    Built more like a traditional 4-3 end, Goodlow played both standing and with a hand on the ground. Not particularly speedy or bendy off the corner, he wins with leverage and power. Has the get-off to play inside. Great length (34 5/8”) and tested well in the forty (4.96), 3cone (7.15) and shuttle (4.42).

    DT Tuli Letuligasenoa- Washington 6’ 1” 295 lb.

    Built like a fire plug. Not just an immoveable rock in run defense, actually needs some lower body play strength work to make up for his short arms. He has good down hill move skills for his size and shows some juice as a pass rusher. Keeps his pads low to burst through gaps and shows effort pursuing the play from behind.

    DT David Olajiga- Central Missouri 6’ 3” 319 lb.

    Attended the Missouri Pro Day and although I could not find confirmation, he reportedly ran a 5.01 forty, had a 34.5” vertical, and put up 38 reps. Pictures on his Instagram account show a totally buffed out prospect. Will really have to dig for film, but totaled 98 tackles, 20 for loss, and nine sacks in 32 college games.

    DT David Olajiga- Central Missouri 6’ 3” 319 lb.

    Central Missouri DT David Olajiga David Olajiga is a 6-foot-3 287 pound defensive tackle out of Central Missouri. In 2023, he put up 41 tackles, 8.0 tackles for a loss, 4.5 sacks, He had seven quarterback hits. But the intriguing stat is the fact that he blocked three kicks in 2023

    20hrswk

    Measured 6’3″, 319 lbs.

    Former UCM All-American DT David Olajiga opened some eyes with his performance @ the Mizzou Football NFL Pro Day when he displayed a rare combination of size & explosiveness

    Compared to DL weighing 310+ pounds at the #NFL Combine David’s marks rank;

    -vertical jump = #1 (3.5” higher than #2)
    -forty yard dash = #1 (.04 faster than #2)
    -bench press = #2

    …and he’d hit 38 reps during prep phase, if not for the fatigue from the condensed pro day schedule he likely holds the #1 mark there as well

    ME: Woods transferred to SMU from WVA. He had a great season in 2021 in his first year at WVA. More on that here:

    According to Pro Football Focus College, Woods allowed the lowest passer rating while in coverage among any Big 12 corner last season.

    Not only that, but Woods set the Big 12 record for the lowest passer rating allowed in coverage by any corner in the conference’s history. His 22.1 passer rating allowed was significantly better than the previous record, which was held by former Baylor corner Xavien Howard.

    Woods excels in coverage. He hauled in an attention-grabbing interception on the first day of spring practice in March.

    PFF College also gave the WVU corner the highest grade (90.3) of any player in the country in his position last year.

    WR JJ Laap- Cortland St. 6’ 1 190 lb. Was the deep threat for D3 National Champions last fall. Hauled in 147 passes with 32 touchdowns and averaged 18.7 yards per catch over 46 games. As you would guess, not a lot of film, but he appears to be of good size, length, and speed compared to his collegiate competition.
