LA Rams past sins complicates 2021 NFL Free Agency

Build a 2021 roster

With the LA Rams running up against 21 NFL expiring contracts in 2021, the team is already working hard towards how the team roster will shape up next year. We know of course that CB Jalen Ramsey will need to be re-signed. But what of the remaining 20 free agents?  Here they are listed in diminishing order:

CB Jalen Ramsey          WR Cooper Kupp
S John Johnson III          WR Josh Reynolds
DB Troy Hill                    TE Gerald Everett
OLB Leonard Floyd       IOL Austin Blythe
CB Darious Williams     LS Jake McQuaide
OLB Samson Ebukam  RB Malcolm Brown
CB Donte Deayon          TE Johnny Mundt
OLB Travin Howard.      IOL Jamil Demby

Some may not make it to 2021

The Rams have some players with expiring 2021 contracts on the roster now who may not make it to 2021. They are:

IOL Chandler Brewer
C Coleman Shelton
KR Nsimba Webster
RB John Kelly
TE Kendall Blanton

The LA Rams did not draft any cornerbacks and with all three starting cornerbacks with expiring contracts, the Rams will likely lean into the UDFAs heavily this season on the practice squad.
