Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC+ FutureB
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Rams a B-.

The war room fell hard for Erick All, and it showed at No. 214: 35 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

The Barrett steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In pick No. 20 they get a blindside protector. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Josh Newton
They took Josh Newton at par in Round 2, Pick 29, which is nothing to complain about. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick84 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
They liked Tykee Smith enough to skip the value, taking him in the 84th pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick129 Rnd4 Kedon Slovis
They went early on Kedon Slovis in the Round 4 slot, and the value did not follow. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick157 Rnd5 Jaylan Ford
Good price on Jaylan Ford in slot 157, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick158 Rnd5 Jasheen Davis
The board had cheaper options than Jasheen Davis at No. 158, and it noticed. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick191 Rnd6 Theo Wease Jr.
Somehow Theo Wease Jr. was still sitting there in the 191st overall pick, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick214 Rnd6 Erick All
They talked themselves into Erick All at pick 214, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
Pick216 Rnd6 Blake Watson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Blake Watson in the Round 6 slot, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick218 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 6, Pick 43 is the definition of value, full stop. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick221 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
A conviction pick on Miles Frazier at pick No. 221 that the board grades a round light. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
