Draft Grade — Rams
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesD- FutureA
The Rams lost the trade table, and the C+ tells the story.

The Haynes King selection is the head-turner. The Rams reached 50 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. A mixed bag that lands at C+.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through safety.

The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered.

If Elijah Sarratt and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Elijah Sarratt
Elijah Sarratt at pick No. 28 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick29 Rnd1 Jake Slaughter
In No. 29 they get an anchor for the offensive line, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Julian Neal
Julian Neal at the 61st overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick93 Rnd3 Keylan Rutledge
Keylan Rutledge at the 93rd pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick168 Rnd5 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jermaine Mathews Jr.. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick206 Rnd6 Luke Altmyer
A tidy little value on Luke Altmyer in Round 6, Pick 26, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick209 Rnd6 Haynes King
A big swing on Haynes King at pick No. 209, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
