The Rams made it no secret that they wanted Braden Fiske when they traded up in the second round to select for the Florida State defensive lineman in the 2024 NFL draft.
Giving up a massive haul in order to select the rookie, it seems to have been a solid investment as all reports about Fiske have been positive so far.
Sean McVay made a bold statement on Monday, reinforcing the belief in the young lineman by comparing his demeanor to Rams legend Aaron Donald.
“Jared (Verse) is always talking and Braden is observant, but he’s taken everything in,” McVay said. “His demeanor reminds me very similarly to Aaron’s [Donald] in terms of how locked in he is on the field, the focus and concentration. I think they’re both uniquely themselves though. I think that’s what’s great about it. We don’t want guys to be anything other than themselves.
Considering similar reports came out about Donald during his rookie year, Fiske continues to give the Rams a lot to be excited about.
