The Los Angeles Rams struggled to rush the quarterback off the edge in 2022, totaling 15.5 sacks from their edge rushers. Leonard Floyd tallied nine of those sacks, and Terrell Lewis and Justin Hollins combined for two.
All three of those guys are no longer with the Rams and the team now has 4.5 career sacks from their edge rushers. Michael Hoecht has all 4.5 of those sacks, making outside linebacker a major need for the team entering the 2023 NFL draft.
If the Rams want to address the edge rusher spot early in this year’s draft, B.J. Ojulari out of LSU is a viable choice.
