Draft Grade — Rams
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in pick 190: the Rams steal Rourke and grade out a C+.

The board owed the Rams one, and it paid up: Kurtis Rourke, the No. 140 name on the board, sitting there at the 190th pick like a gift left on the doorstep.

The Hairston pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want.

Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Maxwell Hairston
In pick 26 they get a press-man option on the boundary, though the board says they badly overpaid. More want than need.
Pick90 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Good price on Ozzy Trapilo in slot 90, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick101 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman is a better player than pick No. 101 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick127 Rnd4 Kyle McCord
A quiet steal in Round 4, Pick 25: Kyle McCord for less than the market said. It fills a real need, too.
Pick190 Rnd6 Kurtis Rourke
Kurtis Rourke at the Round 6 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick195 Rnd6 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
They paid sticker price for Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson in No. 195, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick201 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Luke Lachey. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick202 Rnd6 Nazir Stackhouse
No edge and no loss on Nazir Stackhouse in the 202nd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
