LA Rams Top 5 positional rankings: Offense edition

LA Rams NFL Draft Board interior offensive lineman class of 2020

1.- Tyler Biadasz (Wisconsin): Maybe the most versatile player of this list. Biadasz played both defensive line and offensive line in high school. In college, he garnered individual awards such as the Remington in 2019 (best center in the nation) and first-team all-conference (2018), All-Big Ten (2019) and first-team for the Associated Press. He excels in both passing and running games, but he is best at run blocking. Could and should be a day-one starter.

2.- Cesar Ruiz (Michigan): Ruiz comes in almost tied for the best IOL this year, as he should, A solid, versatile and athletic player that can fit almost every scheme; he could play center or guard, as he is fitted for both. Has second-level blocking ability and polished techniques. Could use some more leverage against power-rushers. Day-one starter quality

3.- Lloyd Cushenberry III (LSU): There’s a reason Burrow and Edwards-Helaire are in this list aside from their talent, and that’s their offensive line, commanded by this guy. Cushenberry (or “Cush” as he is known) is a polished, solid center, with spectacular strength that can create driving lanes and bully opposing defensive linemen. Although not as versatile as Biadasz, he should excel at the NFL and could be a day-1 starter as well.

4.- Jonah Jackson (Ohio State): Lengthy, mobile, athletic and with good technique both on hands and feet. Jackson only played one season with the Buckeyes as a Rutgers transfer but shined in his lone year. He plays better as a pass-protection specialist and has swingman abilities along with the interior of the line. Could get better at anchoring himself and has room to get better, but as he stands, he has a solid chance to be a late 1st/mid-2nd round pick.

5.- Tristan Wirfs (Iowa): Wirfs was a right tackle at a college level, but projects better as an interior offensive lineman. He can block and plug the gaps as well as any of the names listed here but lacks athleticism for playing on the outside. Needs to polish come blocking sets, and he could benefit if he sits out a year in order to develop better. Wirfs could come handy as a swingman in year one, looking to secure a spot either mid-season or the next, but for sure, he is a talented player.
