With all the stars the Rams have on their team, they’ve had to do some gymnastics to stay under the cap and field the best team possible. It’s a task Les Snead, Sean McVay and the entire front office have completed to near-perfection – just look at the Super Bowl they won as evidence – but it definitely is a challenge year in and year out.
Aaron Donald, Jalen Ramsey, Matthew Stafford, Cooper Kupp, Allen Robinson and Bobby Wagner are all under contract for the next three-plus years, and their contracts are not cheap. So the Rams will need to find players who are relatively cheap to complement those stars and fill out the roster, which they’ve done for the last four years or so.
In terms of their future salary cap health, the Rams aren’t in the best shape based on Pro Football Focus’ analysis. According to PFF, the Rams are only 27th in that department.
