Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureD
The Rams turned the phones into found money: B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Collin Oliver at No. 204, a reach of 118 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

That is a tight end worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Leaving safety unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick90 Rnd3 Barrett Carter
They let Barrett Carter come to them and pounced at pick No. 90. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick100 Rnd3 Logan Brown
They left a pile of value on the table to take Logan Brown this early at the 100th overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kaimon Rucker
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kaimon Rucker in pick 126, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick192 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
By-the-book stuff, Joshua Gray at slot 192 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick197 Rnd6 Roc Taylor
Fair-plus on Roc Taylor, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jake Briningstool
Jake Briningstool at the Round 6 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick204 Rnd6 Collin Oliver
Collin Oliver in the Round 6 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
