FutureB-
The Rams won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+. There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Rams started one anyway for Daevin Hobbs, 39 picks ahead of schedule.
The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Reese.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Jermod McCoy
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick31
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In slot 31 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick38
Rnd2
Caleb Lomu
They took Caleb Lomu at par in pick No. 38, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick63
Rnd2
Dillon Thieneman
Value with a capital V on Dillon Thieneman in the 63rd pick, a genuine coup. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick95
Rnd3
Zachariah Branch
Value said wait; Zachariah Branch in the 95th overall pick says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick171
Rnd5
Earnest Greene III
Earnest Greene III in pick 171 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick196
Rnd6
Jaren Kanak
They reached a country mile for Jaren Kanak at slot 196, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick211
Rnd6
Daevin Hobbs
Daevin Hobbs in the Round 6 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick230
Rnd7
Jordan Castell
They paid sticker price for Jordan Castell in the 230th overall pick, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick234
Rnd7
Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III in No. 234 is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick248
Rnd7
Smith Snowden
Smith Snowden in pick No. 248 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
