LA Rams: 2021 NFL Draft – Mock Draft 3.0

138. Ohio State Edge, Jonathon Cooper

You might be saying to yourself another edge rusher? The answer is yes, another edge rusher. The Rams need to load up on them during this year’s draft. Both Samson Ebukam and Leonard Floyd are unrestricted free agents and the injury concerns to Terrell Lewis are worrisome.

Cooper is a player who consistently wins his one on ones, something that’s important to have especially with defensive tackle Aaron Donald getting blocked by two or three offensive linemen every play. One more thing, he’s a perfect example of a “We not me” philosophy player. Watch the video below to see the leadership traits he embodies.

This is a player who you want on your side, a player who you want to go to war with every day. Also, there’s something about those Ohio State pass rushers that almost always transition into well into the NFL.  He’s a technician with his hands and learning from the games best in Donald could do him wonders.
