Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Rams did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Rams spent real capital to be 32 picks early on Erick All, and the board is going to hold them to it. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

They went 8 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Quantity was the play, for better or worse.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In pick 22 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Josh Newton
Josh Newton in the 57th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick86 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Braden Fiske. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jahdae Barron
Jahdae Barron at the Round 4 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick137 Rnd5 Kedon Slovis
A straight-up fair deal on Kedon Slovis at No. 137, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick157 Rnd5 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson in the 157th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick160 Rnd5 Malik Washington
No drama and no debate, Malik Washington went about where he belonged in No. 160. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick191 Rnd6 Miyan Williams
No edge and no loss on Miyan Williams in the 191st pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick214 Rnd6 Dylan McMahon
A premium they did not need to pay, Dylan McMahon a notch or two before his time. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
They took Jordan Magee at par in Round 6, Pick 41, which is nothing to complain about. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick218 Rnd6 Erick All
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Erick All well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick221 Rnd7 Jabbar Muhammad
They paid sticker price for Jabbar Muhammad in pick No. 221, and that is fine. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
