Rams, Eagles Explore Trades Ahead of 2025 NFL Draft

The Los Angeles Rams are keeping their draft strategy, particularly regarding selecting a quarterback to potentially succeed Matthew Stafford, closely guarded, with management emphasizing internal deliberation but stressing the importance of clear communication with Stafford if such a move is contemplated. The uncertainty surrounding the Rams' draft moves is compounded by speculation from other teams, such as the Philadelphia Eagles, who may be interested in trading with the Rams to move up in the first round, potentially targeting a tight end to replace Dallas Goedert. Meanwhile, several Rams players, including Stetson Bennett and Tutu Atwell, might find their roles at risk depending on the outcomes of the draft. The NFC West remains highly competitive, with the Rams boasting a strong roster and recent additions like Davante Adams, aiming to build on their postseason momentum as other division rivals also retool. Amidst the broader NFL landscape, rumors and late risers in the draft, such as quarterback Tyler Shough, suggest that teams, including possibly the Rams, could make unexpected moves. As draft week unfolds, speculation and strategic secrecy continue to dominate discussions for both the Rams and the broader league.
