Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B
ValueB NeedB- TradesB+ FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Rams: B.

Hard to follow the map here. The Rams bypassed tight end and interior defensive lineman to take T.J. Tampa at Round 2, Pick 20, a spot they had covered. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. However the rest shakes out, Jordan at that price is a win they earned. Reaching for Tupuola-Fetui left real value on the table behind him.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In pick 32 they get an island corner. More want than need.
Pick52 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, T.J. Tampa adds a cornerback and leaves tight end and interior defensive lineman untouched.
Pick75 Rnd3 Trey Benson
They did well to land Trey Benson in slot 75, just ahead of his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick84 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran in the 84th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick95 Rnd3 Gabriel Murphy
A tidy bit of business in No. 95, where Gabriel Murphy graded well above the range. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at the 110th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick134 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
No drama and no debate, Luke McCaffrey went about where he belonged in Round 4, Pick 34. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick157 Rnd5 Zion Tupuola-Fetui
Zion Tupuola-Fetui at pick No. 157 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick158 Rnd5 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio in the Round 5 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick191 Rnd6 Christian Jones
No edge and no loss on Christian Jones in slot 191; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick214 Rnd6 Jalen Green
Jalen Green at pick 214 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
They read the board right and Jawhar Jordan was the payoff at No. 216. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick218 Rnd6 Myles Jones
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Myles Jones in Round 6, Pick 43. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick221 Rnd7 Isaiah Neyor
Value with a capital V on Isaiah Neyor in the 221st pick, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
