Examining the Rams’ options at left tackle for 2020

Weighing the Rams’ top options at left tackle in 2020, including draft and free agent targets.

Move Bobby Evans or Rob Havenstein to LT

Evans played left tackle at Oklahoma and held his own at right tackle in place of Havenstein last season. He has the requisite length and movement skills to play left tackle, but he still has some developing to do before he can be trusted to play there full-time.

Another option comes with the combination of Havenstein and Evans at tackle, but with Havenstein on the left side and Evans staying on the right. This would be a big risk-reward scenario because if Havenstein succeeded at left tackle, his $8.125 million salary would be cheap relative to other players at his position. However, if he fails at his new position, the Rams might have a mess at left and right tackle.
