7 winners and 5 losers in Rams 2nd consecutive win over tumbling 49ers

(3) - Winner: DT Braden Fiske / OLB Jared Verse

The LA Rams front office invested significant value in selecting two former Florida State Seminoles rookie prospects with their first two draft selections. So far, fans are not certain that the duo of outside linebacker Jared Verse and defensive tackle Braden Fiske are quite worth the investment. So let's help clarify the confusion for you.

They are definitely worth the investment.

While they have combined for just one quarterback sack in the first three games, they have been making their presence felt against opposing quarterbacks.

Much like the rookie duo of OLB Byron Young and DT Kobie Turner in 2023, the Rams rookie duo of OLB Jared Verse and DT Braden Fiske are creating havoc already. And the fun part of it all is that they are still learning and gaining experience.

The rookie duo will improve rapidly this season. They are getting pressures. Not it's simply a matter of fine tuning the range and timing.

Much like OLB Byron Young, Jared Verse and Braden Fiske are going to have a breakout game soon. Perhaps it will happen on separate occasions. Perhaps they will combine for a huge effort simultaneously. The Rams need then to continue to get better.

And they will.
