Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
The Rams checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Rams would have aced it. Zion Logue at the 221st overall pick is 29 spots clear of where he belonged. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

That Ali pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the 20th pick they get a cornerstone up front, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51 Rnd2 Calen Bullock
They did well to land Calen Bullock in slot 51, just ahead of his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick83 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
By-the-book stuff, Mike Sainristil at the 83rd overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick84 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 84 with a little surplus value in Malachi Corley. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick102 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at Round 4, Pick 2 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick156 Rnd5 Javion Cohen
Nothing to complain about; Javion Cohen went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick157 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at the 157th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick191 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford is a better player than No. 191 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick214 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
Rasheen Ali at the 214th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick216 Rnd6 Kenny Logan Jr.
Good price on Kenny Logan Jr. in the Round 6 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick218 Rnd6 Jha'Quan Jackson
Fair-plus on Jha'Quan Jackson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick221 Rnd7 Zion Logue
A big swing on Zion Logue at pick No. 221, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick241 Rnd7 Devin Leary
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Devin Leary well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
