Rams Fantasy Football Rankings And Depth Chart

2026 Rams Fantasy Football Overview

Matthew Stafford threw for an NFL-high 4,707 yards and 46 touchdowns in 2025. The Rams didn't actually throw the ball much more than usual near the goal line—the spike came from 46.6% of Stafford's inside-the-10 pass attempts going for scores, up from 27.9% in 2024. Natural regression could push the reigning MVP's fantasy production closer to what we saw from 2021-2024 (15.7 fantasy points per game, QB19) as opposed to 2025 (20.6, QB3).

Kyren Williams' workload dropped considerably in 2025 (17.4 touches per game) compared to 2023 and 2024 (21.8), but his efficiency improved, and he scored 13 touchdowns inside the league's top-ranked scoring offense. Greedy fantasy managers always want more touches. Just realize Williams will be tough to keep out of the weekly RB1 conversation with similar volume and scoring upside in 2026. Amidst this, Blake Corum carried FLEX-worthy standalone value down the stretch and arguably the single-most valuable handcuff in fantasy football entering next season.

Puka Nacua is WR1 in career PPR points per game … in NFL history. He's a consensus top-3 receiver and top-5 overall pick in fantasy land. And then there's Davante Adams, who worked as fantasy's WR9 (15.9 PPR points per game) before missing the end of the season with a hamstring injury. 33-year-old receivers don't make a habit of balling out in fantasy land. Though, realize double-digit touchdown upside remains on the table for the future Hall of Famer.

Rams tight ends collectively scored the second-most PPR points in the league, but their committee usage led to Colby Parkinson (TE22) being the top scorer. Rising second-year talent Terrance Ferguson probably possesses the most raw upside of the group, but it's unlikely any party involved receives enough consistent volume to be overly dependable in fantasy land.

Utilization Notes For The Los Angeles Rams

Kyren Williams averaged 21.4, 17.4 and 15.7 fantasy points from 2023 to 2025, notching a top-12 season each year. In 2023 and 2024, Williams was the only game in town, with astronomical snap shares of 83% and 87%. Last season, that fell to 63% from Week 7 through the NFL Playoffs with Blake Corum carving out a larger role in Year 2. This doesn't make Williams a bad fantasy asset—he plays in one of the best offenses—but we should adjust expectations. Williams projects as a mid-range RB2, and his floor is lower if Corum's role expands.
