Rams offensive line as of today

Offensive Line:<\/strong> Joe Noteboom<\/strong> wasn\u2019t even dressing during the playoffs. LG: Steve Avila\u2014PB\/55.8.\u2026RB\/74.1\u201428\/77<\/strong> Justin Dedich<\/strong>, a UDFA out of USC, was competent by midseason. His play made former third round pick Logan Bruss expendable.<\/p>\n RamView<\/strong> Live at 5PM, today on YouTube<\/p><\/div>\n C: Beau Limmer\u2014PB\/34.4\u2026RB\/63.8\u201435\/40<\/strong> Dylan McMahon<\/strong>, a 6th round pick of Philly the Rams signed off the Eagles PS, McMahon is undersized and, at this point, does not seem to have a long term future.<\/p>\n RG: Kevin Dotson<\/strong>\u2014PB\/52\u2026RB\/72.3\u20149\/77 Jonah Jackson<\/strong> is the wildcard. Set to make serious dough in 2025, he couldn\u2019t get on the field at the end of 2024. Injuries and, likely, a lack or reps contributed to his lost season. If he stays and plays in LA next season it will be as the center. Is he good enough to supplant Limmer\u2026or is he an overpriced depth piece? As a depth piece, it seems a long shot for the Rams to keep him.<\/p>\n KT Leveston<\/strong> (LT in college) has size and enough potential that the Rams did not risk running the 7th round pick through waivers to put on the PS. Draft profile says he has the size to play tackle, but skill set makes him a guard in the NFL.<\/p>\n RT: Rob Havenstein PB\/63.6\u2026RB\/75.5\u201325\/81<\/strong> Warren McLendon Jr.<\/strong> is what he is. He\u2019s a right tackle, and it does not mean he\u2019s the long term replacement for Havenstein when the time comes. He could be, but for now he\u2019s a solid backup the Rams have two years of control over.<\/p>\n Others:<\/strong> Rams offensive line as of today (Note: Pro Football Focus \\rankings are to the right of each player.

\nLT: Alaric Jackson\u2014PB\/81.7\u2026RB\/66\u201418\/81<\/strong>
\nNote:<\/strong> Next to Matthew Stafford, Jackson is the key to the Rams offseason. A UDFA (Undrafted Free Agent) out of Iowa, he has become an above average starter the last two seasons. Retaining him, seems at minimum, likely to cost 15-20-Rocks per year.
\nThe free agent market isn\u2019t great, and the Rams track record of drafting left tackles in the first round since Orlando Pace is abysmal (See: Alex Barron, Jason Smith, Greg Robinson).<\/p>\n
\nA.J. Arcuri<\/strong> has proven to be little more than a Practice Squad guy.<\/p>\n
\nNote:<\/strong> Avila\u2019s season was derailed by the knee injury. Came back strong down the stretch. He\u2019s got the spot on lockdown.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/midvalleysports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/RamImage.jpeg\")
\nNote:<\/strong> Limmer\u2019s play was a surprise. Played especially well considering where he was drafted. The question is, with Jonah Jackson still on the roster, does Limmer\u2019s ceiling go any higher or is he another Coleman Shelton? Not bad, but\u2026are we really sure?<\/p>\n
\nNote:<\/strong> Dotson has been a revelation since the end of summer deal that brought him to the Rams in 2023. Locked up through 2026, he was banged up early and got better down the stretch in 2024. Road grader, he\u2019s less than perfect in pass protection.<\/p>\n
\nNote:<\/strong> An absolute stud, and the glue of the offensive line, who is only noticed when he is not playing. Heading into his eleventh season and final year of his contract. His situation will become year to year.<\/p>\n
