Draft Grade — Rams
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Rams: C+.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Rams shredded theirs for Dayon Hayes. He came off 94 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

However the rest shakes out, Martinez at that price is a win they earned. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Aireontae Ersery
In No. 26 they get protection for the quarterback, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick90 Rnd3 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at pick 90 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick100 Rnd3 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
They left a pile of value on the table to take Antwaun Powell-Ryland this early at slot 100. The roster fit checks out.
Pick126 Rnd4 Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. at the Round 4 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick192 Rnd6 Damien Martinez
Damien Martinez in the 192nd pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick197 Rnd6 Alijah Huzzie
Alijah Huzzie at Round 6, Pick 19 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick203 Rnd6 Dayon Hayes
Value said wait; Dayon Hayes in Round 6, Pick 25 says they were not listening. It fills a real need, too.
Pick204 Rnd6 Carson Vinson
They went early on Carson Vinson in No. 204, and the value did not follow. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
