5 free agents LA Rams must target for offensive line

Philadelphia Eagles G/T Halapoulivaati Vaitai

With the injuries which plagued the Los Angeles Rams in 2019, it would be wrong not to apply the lessons learned to a better strategy in 2020.  One of the most glaring lessons?  The Rams need better depth all along the offensive line.

What better way to improve that depth than to sign a player who is capable of absorbing starts at virtually any position along the offensive line?  Vaitai stands 6-foot-6 and tips the scale at a petite 320 pounds.  He is as strong as an ox, and has been with Philadelphia since the 2016 NFL Draft.

He’s not only big and strong, but he’s a plug and play replacement for both guards and tackle spots on the offensive line. Based on what the Rams endured on the offensive line in 2020, he would be a great addition.

The LA Rams discovered that depth is just as important for a playoff run as high quality starters.  Which team is better experienced than Philadelphia in plugging holes in the starting lineup due to injuries?  Sign Vaitai, and the team integrate that needed experience instantly.
