Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Rams let Moss fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

When a board-topper like Miller Moss slides to pick No. 208, you do not overthink it, and the Rams did not.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. The cost of the Sturdivant reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In the 13th pick they get an island corner. More want than need.
Pick29 Rnd1 Caleb Banks
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick61 Rnd2 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Emmanuel McNeil-Warren. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick93 Rnd3 Malachi Fields
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Malachi Fields at pick No. 93 is the proof. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick167 Rnd5 Kobe Baynes
Kobe Baynes at slot 167 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick205 Rnd6 J. Michael Sturdivant
They liked J. Michael Sturdivant enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 6, Pick 26. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick208 Rnd6 Miller Moss
Miller Moss in the 208th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick232 Rnd7 Tosh Baker
Tosh Baker at pick 232 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick250 Rnd7 Kendrick Law
Kendrick Law at the 250th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick256 Rnd7 Haynes King
Value with a capital V on Haynes King in the 256th pick, a genuine coup. A need, and now a little less of one.
