3. Keishawn Bierria

Around this time last year, linebacker was one of the biggest questions for the Rams, although things arguably worked out better than expected in 2018.

Between Cory Littleton stepping up in a big way to the team taking a risk on Dante Fowler Jr. that seemed to pay off since the former first-round pick will return for his first full season in 2019, Los Angeles is in better shape than they realize at the position.

However, there’s no telling what the situation could be like at linebacker beyond the 2019 season since Fowler is only under contract for one season, and other players like Clay Matthews certainly aren’t getting any younger.

During the draft in 2018, the Broncos decided to use a sixth-round pick on Keishawn Bierria following a stellar career at Washington, and while he did manage to appear in every game as a rookie, they could afford to adjust on defense without him.

Best part is, since Bierria is coming off his first NFL season in 2018, the younger may only be scratching the surface of his true potential on defense, and joining a serious contender like the Rams could even lead to a larger role down the road.
