Wyatt Bowles

Los Angeles didn’t have many draft picks, checking in with only six drafted rookies after trading out of the first round, so they’ve added a large contingent of undrafted players to form a 23-man rookie class. Here are the 17 UDFA signings:

• Wyatt Bowles, G (Utah State)
• Malik Dixon-Williams, S (UConn)
• Shaun Dolac, LB (Buffalo)
• Ben Dooley, G (Boise State)
• Tru Edwards, WR (Louisiana Tech)
• Willie Lampkin, C (North Carolina)
• Jamil Muhammad, OLB (USC)
• Bill Norton, DT (Texas)
• Josh Pearcy, OLB (Rice)
• Brennan Presley, WR (Oklahoma State)
• Mark Redman, TE (Louisville)
• Da’Jon Terry, DT (Oklahoma)
• Anthony Torres, TE (Toledo)
• Nate Valcarcel, S (Northern Illinois)
• Jordan Waters, RB (NC State)
• Trey Wedig, T (Indiana)
• Mario Williams, WR (Tulane)

The biggest of these additions probably come on the offensive line with Lampkin and Wedig. After starting three seasons at Coastal Carolina (two at left guard and one at center), Lampkin transferred to Chapel Hill. In his first season with the Tar Heels, he started eight games at right guard, two at left guard, and one at center before starting 12 games at right guard in 2024 with first-team All-ACC honors. His versatility gives him value at multiple interior positions for the Rams, but their listing him at center likely means they see the most value for him there.

Wedig was another transfer, earning the starting right tackle job at Indiana after spending four years at Wisconsin. He found some starting time with the Badgers in his redshirt sophomore season, starting five games at right tackle, two at right guard, and one at left guard, but he lost first-team duties the following year. He didn’t earn any accolades as a Hoosier, but he attended the East-West Shrine Bowl where he stood out and likely earned himself this NFL opportunity.

On defense, Dolac continues to prove he belongs despite the value that is assigned to him. Dolac walked on as a freshman at Buffalo, playing minimal time. He earned a scholarship as a sophomore starting two games and notching 1.5 sacks and 6.0 tackles for loss. He started all 13 games in 2022, totaling 147 tackles, 13.5 tackles for loss, and 4.5 sacks, before missing eight games with a shoulder injury the following year. He returned for a fifth season (granted due to COVID-19) and started all 13 games once again, showing up all over the field and stat sheet with 168 total tackles, 18.5 tackles for loss, 6.5 sacks, 10 passes defensed, and five interceptions — all career highs. Once again, he’ll come into a new situation itching to prove he belongs in Los Angeles.
