Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett is officially entering the NFL, as the two-time NCAA champion is headed to the Rams after being taken in the fourth round. Bennett will backup another former Bulldog in Matthew Stafford, as the two are currently the only quarterbacks on the Rams roster.
Entering day three, Bennett was arguably the biggest name remaining, and he was certainly the most successful signal-caller, so the NFL world was waiting to see where he would go. After Los Angeles made the selection, fans and analysts alike chimed in on what they thought about the fit between Bennett and the Rams.
The Rams take Georgia QB Stetson Bennett—I got the sense coaches getting involved in the process with teams across the league raised his stock. One I talked to thought he could go in the third and felt like he'd been stigmatized as a "walk-on".

LA's a great landing spot for him.
