Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB+
The Rams checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

The Rams torched the value chart for MJ Sherman, taking him 149 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Warren. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in Round 2, Pick 1 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick76 Rnd3 Shemar Turner
They took Shemar Turner at par in slot 76, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick125 Rnd4 Nohl Williams
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Nohl Williams at pick 125. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick127 Rnd4 Kyle Williams
No edge and no loss on Kyle Williams in the 127th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick149 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
They jumped the gun on Bhayshul Tuten, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick181 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
No drama and no debate, Jack Nelson went about where he belonged in No. 181. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick190 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick 190 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick192 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed in the 192nd overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick195 Rnd6 Tyler Cooper
Tyler Cooper at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick201 Rnd6 Karene Reid
A premium they did not need to pay, Karene Reid a notch or two before his time. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick202 Rnd6 Isaac TeSlaa
They reached a country mile for Isaac TeSlaa at the 202nd pick, and the board is aghast. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick204 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Joshua Gray. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick216 Rnd6 Bilhal Kone
This one needs a full-page explanation: Bilhal Kone in slot 216, miles early. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick256 Rnd7 MJ Sherman
A big swing on MJ Sherman at No. 256, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
