Max Klare made the most of his lone college football season with the Ohio State Buckeyes.<\/p>\n

After transferring from Purdue, he turned himself into a second-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n

There’s just one bit of irony: He’s gone to a place with a boatload of tight ends.<\/p>\n

The Los Angeles Rams<\/a> drafted Klare, and the depth chart is quite crowded.<\/p>\n

Their depth chart is actually so full that the popular site Ourlads<\/a>\u00a0breaks their tight end position into “left tight end” and “right tight end” — something it doesn’t do for other teams.<\/p>\n

Before drafting Klare, the Rams already had the veteran Tyler Higbee along with Colby Parkinson, Davis Allen and 2025 second-round pick Terrance Ferguson.<\/p>\n

They now add Klare to the mix as a fifth potential tight end to try and make the roster.<\/p>\n

Is there a trade in the works? Maybe.<\/p>\n

But in reality, the Rams play tight ends as much as anyone in football. They’ll put three on the field at once.<\/p>\n

After the Klare pick, someone joked that the Rams might play a 14 formation — one running back, four tight ends, no wide receivers.<\/p>\n

And hey, at this rate, they’ve got the personnel to do it.<\/p>\n

Obviously, they have talented wideouts Davante Adams and Puka Nacua, so they need them on the field, too. It could get confusing.<\/p>\n

It might already be confusing for Klare. It’s exciting to get to play for Sean McVay and with Matthew Stafford.<\/p>\n

But, well, there are only so many spots for tight ends. And it sure feels like the Rams have too many.<\/p>\n
