4 Rams selected to ESPN’s All-Pro team

1 week ago 2

The Los Angeles Rams are sending four players to the 2026 Pro Bowl Games and at least a few of them could wind up with an even greater honor: being selected as an All-Pro.

ESPN analyst Bill Barnwell selected his All-Pro team for the 2025 season and he has four Rams players on his list. Only one of them is a first-team selection, however.

He picked Matthew Stafford as the second-team quarterback, Puka Nacua as the first-team wide receiver, Kevin Dotson as a second-team guard and Kobie Turner as a second-team defensive tackle.

Barnwell endorsed Drake Maye over Stafford on his All-Pro list and is also picking him to win MVP.

I stand roughly where I did three weeks ago -- with everyone else beyond the top two ruled out of the race. This is Maye vs. Stafford. Last time I wrote about them, I had a very slight lean toward the Patriots standout. Right now, with one week of regular-season football to go, Maye seems like the clear choice as MVP.

Barnwell loves what he’s seen from Puka Nacua all year, calling him a “special player” for the season he’s put together. He picked Nacua alongside Jaxon Smith-Njigba and George Pickens as his first-team All-Pros, a deserving honor for the Rams receiver.

A special season from a special player. Nacua is the most efficient receiver in football, averaging a league-best 3.9 yards per route run. He leads the NFL in receiving yards over expectation (434) and is second in yards after catch over expectation behind the next guy on this list, per Next Gen Stats. Targets thrown to Nacua have generated 105.9 EPA -- 19 EPA ahead of any other receiver in the league.

Cases could be made for Jared Verse, Byron Young, Alaric Jackson and Kam Curl as potential All-Pro selections, and Barnwell was smart to recognize Dotson and Turner, neither of whom were picked to the Pro Bowl.

The Rams’ roster is as talented as any and their representation in both the Pro Bowl and Barnwell’s All-Pro team reflect that.
