Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Rams kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Markel Bell at the 29th pick is 67 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The Lew steal is the beam this whole class leans on. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In slot 13 they get a lockdown presence outside. More want than need.
Pick29 Rnd1 Markel Bell
In the Round 1 slot they get a blindside protector, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick61 Rnd2 Michael Taaffe
Nice patience on Michael Taaffe, who had no business lasting to the 61st overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick93 Rnd3 Connor Lew
Steal is underselling it; Connor Lew at Round 3, Pick 29 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick167 Rnd5 Sam Roush
Nothing to complain about; Sam Roush went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick205 Rnd6 Sawyer Robertson
A slide stopped in pick No. 205, with Sawyer Robertson worth more than the price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick208 Rnd6 Keyshaun Elliott
Keyshaun Elliott at Round 6, Pick 29 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick232 Rnd7 Eli Heidenreich
Eli Heidenreich in the Round 7 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick250 Rnd7 Seth McGowan
Seth McGowan slipping to slot 250 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick256 Rnd7 Deven Eastern
No edge and no loss on Deven Eastern in pick 256; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
