Rams waste no time signing 13 potential impact players after the 2025 NFL Draft

From the moment that the Los Angeles Rams pulled in the brick from their 2025 NFL Draft efforts, the team had already deployed a small army of scouts and personnel executives to all corners of the country to ink college players who did not hear their names called out during the draft. Whether you refer to them as undrafted free agents (UDFAs) or collegiate free agents (CFAs), the result is the same.

They are up for grabs to whoever makes them the most attractive offer. Based on the success of the coaching staff getting undrafted rookies on the 53-man Rams roster, some even getting significant playing time, the team always makes a compelling offer.

So, who did the Rams sign after the draft who should be on your radar?

Defense (6)

Defensive tackle (2)

• DT DaJon Terry - The Rams added a powerful defensive tackle, per Tom Pelissero, in Oklahoma DT DaJon Terry. Standing 6-foot-3 and weighing 321 pounds, Terry is not going to flash for everyone, but he is a solid blocker-gobbler who NFL teams need to do the dirty work in the trenches to free up playmakers. He gives 100 percent on every play.
• DT Bill Norton - Per the Texas Longhorns, the Rams are signing a huge bargain in 6-foot-6, 335-pound defensive lineman Bill Norton. Norton. Norton is impressive in presence, but underwhelming on the football field. He needs to convert size and power into production, but my-oh-my, what a huge and powerful defensive lineman.

Inside linebacker (1)

• LB Shaun Dolac - 6-foot-1, 225-pound inside linebacker from the University of Buffalo. Shaun Dolac. He wowed scouts at his pro day. From Buffalo Bills Beat writer Ryan Talbot: Per source, UB LB Shaun Dolac is joining the #Rams as an UDFA. He has that unique S/LB potential

Outside linebacker (2)

• OLB Jamil Muhammad - A former quarterback turned pass rusher, this USC prospect certainly brings plenty of intrigue to the Rams roster, per Aaron Wilson. His unique career track even caught the eye of the Kansas City Chiefs. Standing an estimated 6-foot-2 and weighing 230 pounds, his best season was 2023 when he racked up 46 tackles, 11 tackles for a loss, and 6.5 quarterback sacks. He is worth keeping on the radar.
• OLB Josh Pearcy - A six-year edge rusher for Rice, the 6-foot-2, 242-pound performer is signing with the Rams, per Rice. A quietly productive iron man in the NCAA, Pearcy brings passion and versatility to the NFL and could find his niche in any number of roles.

Safety (1)

• S Nate Valcarcel - After the stunning performance of undrafted S Jaylen McCollough, the addition of Northern Illinois' 6-foot-1, 192-pound safety Nate Valcarcel cannot be brushed off as another camp body. Per Ryan Fowler, Valcarcel is joining the Rams' secondary to compete for playing time. His stats prove that he is developing each year. Now, he brings that football passion to the NFL

Offense (7)

Running back (1)

• RB Jordan Waters - While Jordan Waters was undrafted, he is worth talking about from his size and stature alone. Per Aaron Wilson, the Rams are signing the former 6-foot-0, 224-pound NC State running back. While he unofficially clocked a 4.58-second 40-time, his size more than compensates for that. He is a versatile weapon in the offensive backfield that can put yards and points on the board on the ground or through the air.

Wide Receiver (3)

• WR Mario Williams - The wide receiver room gets more competitive with the addition of Tulane's 5-foot-9, 178-pound rookie wide receiver prospect, per Tulane Football. He will need to prove that he can compete as an every-down offensive weapon, but he has plenty of special-teams and trick-play potential.
• WR Tru Edwards - Rather than transfer from Louisiana Tech to Kentucky, this diamond-in-the-rough wide receiver has signed to play for the Rams instead, per NFL Insider Adam Schefter. While a bit unorthodox, there is a lot to love about this signing. If his college stats profile is true, he stands 6-foot-3, weighs 200 pounds, and clocked an unofficial 40-time of 4.40 seconds.
• WR Brennan Pressley - Per Matt Zenitz, the Rams are adding one of Oklahoma State's most prolific pass catchers. He is limited by size alone, as he stands 5-foot-9, weighs 175 pounds, and runs a 4.46-second 40-yard dash. He is a versatile offensive weapon and a special-teams standout.

Interior offensive lineman (2)

• IOL Willie Lampkin - Per Justin Melo of The Draft Network. The Rams' front office does not hold a size standard that other NFL teams have. NT Poona Ford (at 5-foot-11)? Meet 5-foot-10, 270-pound interior offensive lineman Willie Lampkin. If Lampkin were four inches taller, he might have been drafted on Day 2. Is he the Rams' future fullback? Oh wow, if he is, this is the steal of the draft.
• IOL Ben Dooley - Per Boise State, 6-foot-5, 320-pound left guard Ben Dooley will sign with the Rams. He was a long-time blocker for standout RB Ashton Jeanty, so he comes with a presumed excellent mark in run blocking.

Offensive tackle (1)

• OT Trey Wedig - If you didn't realize, Rams starting left tackle Alaric Jackson was an undrafted free agent signing who was projected as early as Round 3 but fell out of the draft. That is why the similar tale of Indiana's 6-foot-6, 310-pound offensive tackle is worth the read. Signing with the Rams, per Jeremy Fowler, Wedig instantly throws his hat into the ring for competing as RT Rob Havenstein's successor.

It's a solid start to reinforce the ranks for training camp. And there is enough potential talent to develop into NFL-caliber players through training camp and preseason. The history of this team consistently proves that undrafted signings today can and do become starters tomorrow. Who will take advantage of their opportunities? That is what the Rams' 2025 training camp is about to find out.

As always, thanks for reading.
