STM Take
$24M Rams contract as a 2022 Colorado UDFA puts Landman in the rare outlier-positive market value LB class. The Colorado Pac-12 UDFA origin plus the elite UDFA market value reflect the structural developmental success. The 2026 question is whether Landman crosses into tier 5-6 territory or whether the structural team-fit ceiling caps at top-50 LB.
Landman came out of Colorado as a 2022 undrafted free agent signed by the Atlanta Falcons after earning 2021 First-Team All-Pac-12 honors. He emerged into a structural LB starter with the Falcons before signing a three-year, $24M deal with the Los Angeles Rams in 2025 free agency.
Strengths
- $24M Rams contract as a 2022 Colorado UDFA puts him in the rare outlier-positive market value LB class.
- Colorado Pac-12 2021 First-Team All-Pac-12 honors plus four years of NFL development gives him real college foundation.
Concerns
- Career STTM range typically tier 7-8 confirms the structural ceiling has rarely climbed above mid-tier LB.
- $7M 2026 cap hit creates moderate contract-value risk if Landman cannot cross into tier 6 territory.
What to watch: Whether Landman crosses into tier 6 (top 50) in 2026 with the Rams, the threshold for closing the gap between $24M contract and STTM ranking.
