Late option in FF leagues
Rams TE2
Who will this be? It could be TE Jordan Reed if rumors are true. It could be TE Gerald Everett if they are not. Or it could be a player behind draft option number three if a solid performer like Notre Dame TE Cole Kmet falls to the Rams. Whoever this settles into, you can bet the Rams offense will have plans in place to feature him on some offensive plays.

Will it be enough to draft him onto your team? Only in large leagues with huge rosters. If this turns out to be the Rams sticking with Gerald Everett, keep an eye out. He’ll be playing hard for time on the field and next year’s contract.
TE Tyler Higbee
The LA Rams were pleasantly surprised by the 2019 late-season outburst by tight end Tyler Higbee. In the last games, Higbee stepped up to prove he has every right to be a significant player in the Rams’ 2020 offensive plans. And in a league with few primary options, Higbee is a name to keep an eye on.
Right now, he should be about the eighth tight end chosen. But he’s definitely a riser in 2020, so if you lean his way after the top four of George Kittle, Travis Kelce, Mark Andrews, and Zach Ertz, you’ll be on safe ground.
RB Darrell Henderson
The LA Rams are so focused on improving the running game to benefit Todd Gurley, that the team is bound to improve the production of… Darrell Henderson? Actually yes. Henderson will not break tackles as much as make defenses pay dearly for an open hole. The Rams are looking at adding a fullback to the offense. They are also quite likely to consider more 12 packages. And the team will most certainly feature Henderson on more running plays in 2020.
He’s not quite “there” yet. The Rams have yet to make the moves to ease his way to a more productive 2020. But as soon as the team elects a big running back via the 2020 NFL Draft, Henderson should be someone on your radar.
