Now, the Rams have a core build of players on their rookie deals -- defensive linemen Kobie Turner and Braden Fiske, outside linebackers Byron Young and Jared Verse and safety Quentin Lake -- for a unit that took a big step forward this season under new defensive coordinator Chris Shula.

In his end-of-season press conference, Rams GM Les Snead addressed the status of both QB Matthew Stafford and WR Cooper Kupp, two of the bigger questions facing the team this offseason. Both have uncertain futures in Los Angeles.

The Rams could consider a trade of QB Matthew Stafford, WR Cooper Kupp could be traded or released, and RB Kyren Williams could be extended.

The Los Angeles Rams could move on from quarterback Matthew Stafford this offseason. Other teams will be eager to have him instead.
