There doesn't seem to be an easy consensus and it's not like McVay has a rep for telling the straight truth about starters.
My (purely conjecture) take is that the truth is a mix of things. The Rams were looking at a rising star at LB and considering the cost associated to sign him to a second, far more expensive contract. They liked what they saw in Speights and want to see more (this is based on some posts in this thread and in a quick search that has coaches saying Speights will have a role - link to article from Aug 25). The Rams also know they have bodies that can fill the spot if the young player needs a bit more seasoning. Reeder and Rozeboom have the edge to start based on experience but I agree with Sleeperz that it seems unlikely that lasts. Reeder is the epitome of Journeyman. 4 teams, a few opps to start that were never super impressive, will turn 30 in Sept., and is on waiver wires everywhere for a reason.
My leagues are all dynasty so I'm adding Speights --> Hummel --> Rozeboom --> Reeder
Rozeboom and Reeder would be my choices (in that order) in redraft... though I'd probably avoid the mess unless desperate, honestly.

I don't know if the juice is worth the squeeze on this one. Rams don't prioritize LB, they might just rotate a bunch of JAGs.
I play 53 man rosters, where you can start 5 LBs. Can you imagine how barren that FA wire is right now?
And even in this situation, I ain't too excited about any of these guys.
The collection of middling talents, and the excitement about another UDFA LB just could be muddy for a while. ALL these guys are former UDFA who made the team. Speights is just the newest one. And none of the other guys has ever been helpful to owners, so I'm gonna hold off on that Omar Forever tattoo.
If you go by last year, It's Rozeboom He's best shot to get 80%+, I would say.

Definitely agree here. I was just looking through snap counts over the last 3 years and it's abysmal for Rams ILBs. I would say Rozeboom over Hummel in all formats, Reeder in none. Speights still as the top option in Dynasty but only if it's a churn roster space. I'm not dropping anyone I like for these LBs.
Is it Curl or Johnson? I think those guys have been interchangeable in the box so not sure what happens yet. Might have to see a game first.
Great little read
Looking at possible reasons for Rams' shocking Ernest Jones trade, from a bad knee to a talent regression
It’s hard to understand why the Rams traded Ernest Jones for very little return, but there are a few possible explanations

I'd be careful reading too much into prior usage. No Donald changes how the Rams are going to line up on d. I agree it'll be messy early in the season, so I wouldn't bother with the vets.

Likely a nod to the player they've had in camp and it will change, but the Titans first official depth chart has Gibbens starting alongside Murray.

The Philly homers in my league faded Devin White in last nights draft, and it looks like they knew something our IDP guys didn’t.
As a Dean owner I hope they are right.

As a previous Dean owner (I dropped him at cut downs) I’m kinda sick about this.
Sounds like White is injured (ankle) and isn't making the trip to Brazil. Not sure how bad the injury is
Packers weren't a great LB IDP play last year but that may change with Jacobs depending on how they attack.
Yeah, I do have a few options but Landman has also been injured and i think it is too early to put one of the rookies in. Which leaves Henley or Jerome Baker as my other 2 options to Dean.

That's right. Adam updates his dynasty rankings usually every week (at worst, every other week) all year round.
