The Los Angeles Rams have a number of bargains on their roster as they prepare for the 2025 season, despite having a hefty cap hit from Matthew Stafford, who leads the team with a $47.5 million charge. Among the biggest bargains is wide receiver Puka Nacua, who will count just $1.1 million against the cap due to his rookie contract. Nacua, a fifth-round pick, has already made a mark as one of the league's top receivers since his arrival. Similarly, Jared Verse, the reigning Defensive Rookie of the Year, is earning a mere $3.4 million in his upcoming contract year, creating a favorable situation for the Rams as he aims for a breakout season.

Other notable bargains include left tackle Alaric Jackson, whose $7 million cap hit is considered low given his performance level. Additionally, defensive tackle Kobie Turner and defensive back Quentin Lake are both contributing significantly for $1.5 million and $3.4 million, respectively. The Rams are expected to capitalize on this affordability while preparing for potential paydays for these young stars as they approach the end of their rookie contracts.
