The Los Angeles Rams always do a good job of hiding which draft prospects they’re interested in each year. That’s partly because they don’t send their top talent evaluators to the NFL combine and they also don’t bring in prospects for official pre-draft visits like just about every other team does.
Terrance Ferguson wasn’t completely caught off guard by the Rams drafting him in Round 2, but they also didn’t spend much time with him before the draft. He said he had a formal meeting with one member of the Rams at the combine and “that was about it.”
"I actually had a formal interview with just one person, not even everybody, during the Combine and that was about it,” he said. “Obviously, the Rams are a great organization, great offense, great people leading the organization. I'm super excited to be a part of that."
Ferguson was a top target for the Rams, especially after trading back from No. 26 to 46. He was one of the best tight ends in the class, which was clearly a position of need for Los Angeles.
The Rams are thrilled to have added an athletic tight end like him in the draft, allowing them to expand their offense beyond being so reliant on 11 personnel. As for what he brings to the equation, here’s what Ferguson said.
"I think I bring a lot of things, versatility being the biggest, being able to stretch the field and creating mismatches with linebackers or safeties but also being able to put my nose on somebody,” he said. “The God-gifted ability, but also the versatility and ability to be able to line up anywhere and be able to make an impact however I need to."
