The Los Angeles Rams have a massive roster crunch coming, with the team needing to cut down to 53 players by Sunday. That means the clock is ticking big time for every single guy trying to impress Sean McVay and land a spot, with just one more week of practice and one last preseason game to make their case.
Bubble Boys And Fan GMs: Round Two
Remember how a month ago we all played armchair GM for the Rams, trying to piece together that 53-man roster with barely any info? Well, the community experiment is back, and this time, things are way different. Last time, over a hundred of you dropped your roster predictions, and an aggregate was built based on those early guesses. But that was with “barely any information.” Now, after two preseason games and a “ton of reports” flowing in, we’ve got a much clearer picture. Players who weren’t even on the radar a month ago, guys like Wesley Bailey, Dean Connors, and Austin Blaske, didn’t even sniff those early aggregate rosters. Now, with more intel, the question is whether they can claw their way onto the fan-created roster this time around. It’s way harder than it looks, especially when you realize how few spots are actually up for grabs after the obvious choices.
Locks And The Hard Truth Of Roster Cuts
While some guys are fighting for their careers this week, others are practically etched in stone. Konata Mumpfield and Ronnie Rivers are being treated like total locks for the 53-man roster. And yeah, you can add Jaylen McCollough, Josh Wallace, and Davante Adams to that list of guys who seemingly don’t have to sweat the cuts. But for everyone else, the choices are brutal. Fans submitting their rosters can’t cheat either; you gotta include the long snapper, kicker, and punter. No dodging reality there! The roster generator is live and waiting, so it’s time to make those tough calls.
So, what’s next? Get your choices in now, because an aggregate edition of the fan-created 53-man roster drops before Thursday’s preseason finale against the Chargers. That gives us one last community look at what the squad should be before McVay has to make the agonizing decisions himself by Sunday.
