Draft Grade — Rams
Overall A-
ValueA+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
Mukuba should have been long gone. The Rams pounced, and earned a A-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Andrew Mukuba slide, and the Rams were the ones holding the card at the 204th overall pick. Highway robbery. The board rewarded a patient, disciplined weekend with a A-.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In the end it comes back to Abdul Carter, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In pick 29 they get a bendy edge with upside, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick90 Rnd3 Barrett Carter
A reasonable price with a little left over, Barrett Carter in pick No. 90. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick126 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor in the Round 4 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick192 Rnd6 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at No. 192 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick203 Rnd6 Dillon Gabriel
Circle this one: Dillon Gabriel at slot 203 is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick204 Rnd6 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in the 204th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
