Which NFL Team Will Win the Battle for Caleb Downs in the 2026 Draft?
Los Angeles doesn’t have many needs in this draft, especially on the offensive side now that Matthew Stafford has confirmed his return in 2026. The LA defense under Chris Shula was also very good, but could use some more players in the back end.
Adding Downs to pair with Quentin Lake at safety would make this Los Angeles secondary one of the best in the NFC and would give the Rams the scheme versatility that they lacked somewhat in 2025. Having a defensive back that defends the run as well as Downs does would allow Shula to stay in nickel personnel more often and still defend the run, which is something that the Seahawks defense did very well and that the Seahawks offense took advantage of against the Rams in 2025.
