The Alliance of American Football shut down football operations this week, ending what was a short run as a potential developmental league for the NFL. As of Thursday, players from the AAF are eligible to sign with NFL teams, which has already begun with the Chiefs, Panthers and Broncos adding players from the defunct league.

Should the Rams explore signing anyone from the AAF? They don’t have any glaring holes on the roster and with spots to fill, it wouldn’t be the worst idea to at least look at a few players as possible additions.

Here are five former AAF standouts the Rams should consider signing.

The Rams need a run-stuffing nose tackle and Purcell would fit the bill. Coincidentally, he was cut by Los Angeles in September 2017 before bouncing around from practice squad to practice squad, but he looked dominant in the AAF. At 6-foot-3, 328 pounds, he has the size to play nose tackle in a 3-4 defense.

He’ll be 28 years old later this month and has NFL experience, starting eight games for the 49ers from 2014-16. In the AAF, he recorded 25 pressures and 11 sacks/QB hits combined on 274 pass rushes, while he didn’t miss a single tackle, per Pro Football Focus.

He’s worth another shot for the Rams, especially given the fact that they brought him in two years ago.
