The Los Angeles Rams are drawing attention for their strategic free agency moves, particularly their signing of nose tackle Poona Ford. Recognized as one of the most underrated acquisitions by FOX Sports' Eric Williams, Ford's deal for $15.6 million over two years addresses a critical gap in the Rams' defensive line. His capabilities as a proven run-stuffer and interior pass rusher will be essential as the Rams aim for a Super Bowl run.

The Rams are already home to promising young talent in their defensive line, including Jared Verse, Braden Fiske, Kobie Turner, and Byron Young. Yet, last season's struggles against elite running backs like Saquon Barkley and James Conner highlighted the need for improvement. Ford's addition is expected to bolster their defense significantly, balancing the team's aspiration to contend for a championship while being budget-conscious in a rapidly inflating market.
