Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB+ FutureB
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Rams: B.

The Matt Lee selection is the head-turner. The Rams reached 80 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. The bottom line is a respectable B.

However the rest shakes out, Cowing at that price is a win they earned. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 JC Latham
Good price on JC Latham in pick No. 21, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick62 Rnd2 Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke in the 62nd pick is fair value, right on his grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick93 Rnd3 Adisa Isaac
A straight-up fair deal on Adisa Isaac at Round 3, Pick 30, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis at the 110th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick153 Rnd5 Ainias Smith
A premium they did not need to pay, Ainias Smith a notch or two before his time. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick166 Rnd5 Ashton Gillotte
A tidy little value on Ashton Gillotte in pick 166, a step better than break-even. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jaylon Carlies
They talked themselves into Jaylon Carlies at the Round 5 slot, and the board did not agree. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick192 Rnd6 Jo'Quavious Marks
By-the-book stuff, Jo'Quavious Marks at the 192nd overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick214 Rnd6 Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau at pick 214 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick216 Rnd6 Austin Stogner
A wild overpay on Austin Stogner in Round 6, Pick 41, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick218 Rnd6 Willie Roberts
They read the board right and Willie Roberts was the payoff at slot 218. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick221 Rnd7 Jacob Cowing
They robbed the room for Jacob Cowing here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick231 Rnd7 Matt Lee
Matt Lee in No. 231 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick250 Rnd7 Jontrey Hunter
Jontrey Hunter in the 250th pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
