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

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Rams would have aced it. Ahmed Hassanein at Round 6, Pick 26 is 44 spots clear of where he belonged.

The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Aireontae Ersery
In Round 1, Pick 26 they get protection for the quarterback, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick90 Rnd3 Kobe King
Kobe King at the 90th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick101 Rnd3 Jordan Phillips
They liked Jordan Phillips enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 101. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jah Joyner
Value said wait; Jah Joyner in the Round 4 slot says they were not listening. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick190 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A tidy little value on Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick No. 190, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick195 Rnd6 Jarquez Hunter
Jarquez Hunter at No. 195 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick201 Rnd6 Drew Kendall
Drew Kendall at Round 6, Pick 25 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick202 Rnd6 Ahmed Hassanein
Ahmed Hassanein in No. 202 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
