Dream Team Project
Los Angeles Rams Dream Team
The all-time Rams lineup. Every player listed here actually suited up for the Rams, verified against trusted sources. Fans can comment on the roster or nominate a player with a short note.
Selection Ground Rules
Simple guardrails so every team stays consistent and factual.
- Roster shape: fill a real lineup (QB, RB, WRx3, TE, OL, DL, LB, CB, S, K, P, returner, coach).
- Eligibility: player must have played regular-season snaps for this team; no “almost signed” or practice squad only.
- Verification: confirm with at least two sources (team site, Pro Football Reference, official stats) before adding.
- Era balance: include representation across eras when merit exists; don’t ignore pre-2000 seasons.
- Era adjustment: modern players are bigger/faster; judge dominance relative to their era, not raw size/speed inflation.
- Tie-breakers: prioritize team impact, playoff moments, longevity with the team, then league honors.
- Exclude if primary greatness was elsewhere unless their stint here was elite.
How we fact-check
Each player is confirmed with at least two sources (team site, Pro Football Reference, official NFL stats). If unsure, we leave a placeholder instead of guessing.
Quick sanity checks
- • Confirm team tenure and position
- • Note team-specific honors (Pro Bowl, All-Pro, rings)
- • Prefer era balance over recency bias
