Rams' Day 2 Draft Picks: Wide Receiver or Tackle?

It's April 24th.

Welcome to California News Today, powered by AI.

Day 2 of the 2026 NFL Draft starts in a few hours, and the Rams are locked in on their

61st overall pick.

They already snagged quarterback Ty Simpson at number 13 in Round 1.

Now they're hunting for solid depths to build around him.

Mock drafts from top analysts, point heavy toward wide receivers to boost the offense

right away.

Just like those at the athletic and ESPN, keep landing on Notre Dame's Malachi fields

for pick 61.

At 6 foot 4, and 2 18 pounds, he's got the size to win jump balls and block down field,

making him a quick upgrade over current.

Options like Konata Mumpfield, meanwhile, NFL.com's LandZerline pushes Alabama's

Jeremy Bernard, who was Simpson's top target in college, and fits perfectly in 3 receiver.

Sets.

Sports-illustrated eyes.

Louisville's Chris Bell, while some see offensive tackle Caleb Tiernan from Northwestern

to shore up the line behind guys like Warren McClendon.

At pick 93 in Round 3, predictions spread out with cornerbacks like Florida's Devon

Moore, or Duke's Chandler Rivers for their speed and ball skills.

Others float tackles like Boston College's Jude Bowery, or even a tight end, but wide

outs like fields pop up again in a few.

Williams' GM-less need has a track record of striking gold on days 2 and 3, so whatever

they grab could contribute early.

Eyes stay glued as the board falls.
