Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Rams.

The war room fell hard for Elijah Roberts, and it showed at slot 127: 51 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

They banked enough surplus on Collins to cover a lot of smaller sins. The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In the 26th overall pick they get a weapon on the perimeter at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick90 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Circle this one: Alfred Collins at pick No. 90 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick101 Rnd3 Devin Neal
A running back of that caliber at No. 101 is the definition of value, full stop. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Elijah Roberts
A big swing on Elijah Roberts at Round 4, Pick 25, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick190 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
They let Jack Kiser come to them and pounced at slot 190. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick195 Rnd6 CJ West
Quietly one of the better values of the day, CJ West at pick 195. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick201 Rnd6 Clay Webb
Clay Webb at the 201st pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick202 Rnd6 Tahj Brooks
A clean, defensible pick in the 202nd overall pick with a little surplus value in Tahj Brooks. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
