The 2024 NFL draft could prove to be an important one for the Los Angeles Rams depending on their ambitions. General manager Les Snead will need to get things right if he wants the team to challenge for another Super Bowl with a blend of experience and youth.
The Rams finished second on the NFC West table in the 2023 regular season with a 10-7 record. Although Los Angeles qualified for the playoffs on the back of four straight wins, Sean McVay's team was eliminated from the postseason by the Detroit Lions in the wild-card round.
However, with a solid chance of re-building their team in the upcoming draft, the Rams will be hopeful of success in the future.
