43% of Rams fans want this 13-TD wide receiver at 13th overall, per ESPN

The Los Angeles Rams are entering the 2026 NFL Draft in a very privileged position. They own the 13th overall pick, a high selection, and can do nearly anything with it.

Their roster is mostly set, and while they could use more help on defense, the offensive side of the ball, specifically wide receiver, is a popular selection here for the Rams.

According to ESPN's Seth Walder, 43% of Rams fans are all taking a WR, and specifically USC's Makai Lemon, with the 13th pick in ESPN's mock draft simulator.

43% of Rams fans want Makai Lemon to be 13th pick

"Rams users selected Lemon at pick No. 13 a massive 43% time, which stood out," Walder writes.

The Rams being so strongly linked to Lemon is not a surprise. The team reportedly had trade talks with the Philadelphia Eagles about A.J. Brown. They're clearly interested in adding WR this offseason.

Davante Adams and Puka Nacua are great on their own, but the third WR on the team does need an upgrade. But, more importantly, both Nacua and Adams are in the final year of their current deals.

Adding Lemon, or any WR in the draft, would give the Rams a long-term solution in the WR room, regardless of what happens with Nacua and Adams.

Lemon, the 5-foot-11, 195-pound receiver, has drawn Amon-Ra St. Brown comparisons, and after posting 79 receptions for 1,156 yards and 11 touchdowns for USC this past season, the comparisons don't look too outlandish.

Of course, Lemon likely won't be as good in the NFL as St. Brown in 2026, but even if he's just a solid WR, as the third option for Matthew Stafford, he'd be perfectly fine.

The Rams have interest in WR this offseason, and 43% of fans are looking for the Rams to pick Lemon with the 13th pick. This fit makes a ton of sense, and the odds he's still on the board look solid.
