Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Rams: B-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Jude Bowry, 27 picks early at pick 93. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The back end got a real overhaul.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In the 13th pick they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick29 Rnd1 Christen Miller
They did well to land Christen Miller in the 29th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick61 Rnd2 Michael Taaffe
Fair-plus on Michael Taaffe, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick93 Rnd3 Jude Bowry
They reached a country mile for Jude Bowry at No. 93, and the board is aghast. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick167 Rnd5 Taylen Green
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Taylen Green. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick205 Rnd6 Desmond Reid
A clean, defensible pick in pick 205 with a little surplus value in Desmond Reid. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick208 Rnd6 De'Zhaun Stribling
They paid sticker price for De'Zhaun Stribling in the 208th pick, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick232 Rnd7 Tony Grimes
By-the-book stuff, Tony Grimes at No. 232 squarely in line with his ranking. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick250 Rnd7 Luke Hasz
Luke Hasz at Round 7, Pick 34 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick256 Rnd7 Raheem Anderson II
A straight-up fair deal on Raheem Anderson II at the 256th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
