Instant reaction: Rams select IOL Steve Avila No. 36 overall

The Rams find themselves in a minor rebuild mode, and start that by taking the interior offensive lineman from Steve Avila from TCU who will be tasked with protecting Matthew Stafford.

Avila was dominant at TCU, proving to be one of the most consistent offensive lineman in the country last year. He played 899 snaps for the only allowing eight QB hurries, two QB hits, and no sacks while playing at guard.

With help needed at the offensive line, Avila will likely be asked to start right away, and he has the talent and experience to do just that. His strength and athleticism project well to the next level, and he should fit right in in this Sean McVay offense.
