Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Rams did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Rams would have aced it. Korey Foreman at the Round 7 slot is 150 spots clear of where he belonged.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. The Pavia pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In slot 13 they get a sticky cover corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick29 Rnd1 Dillon Thieneman
In pick No. 29 they get a centerfielder for the defense at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick61 Rnd2 Blake Miller
They took Blake Miller at par in the 61st overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick93 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Darrell Jackson Jr. at Round 3, Pick 29, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick167 Rnd5 Bryce Boettcher
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bryce Boettcher. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick205 Rnd6 Sawyer Robertson
By-the-book stuff, Sawyer Robertson at the Round 6 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick208 Rnd6 Jeff Caldwell
A reach for Jeff Caldwell in Round 6, Pick 29; a little patience would have been rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick232 Rnd7 Korey Foreman
A wild overpay on Korey Foreman in the 232nd pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It fills a real need, too.
Pick250 Rnd7 Diego Pavia
Diego Pavia at the Round 7 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick256 Rnd7 Tristan Leigh
They paid a round early for Tristan Leigh in pick No. 256, more than the board wanted. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
