Draft Grade — Rams
Overall C
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Rams bled value on every deal, hence the C.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Rams, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. A mixed bag that lands at C.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Davis.

The Rams paired the rookies with proven help, Zaire Franklin leading the way.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In pick 19 they get a centerfielder for the defense. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Mykel Williams
A reasonable price with a little left over, Mykel Williams in pick No. 50. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick51 Rnd2 Drew Allar
Drew Allar in the 51st pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick83 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor at the Round 3 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick115 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and J.C. Davis at No. 115 is the proof. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick178 Rnd6 Benjamin Yurosek
Benjamin Yurosek in Round 6, Pick 18 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick181 Rnd6 Xavier Truss
They took Xavier Truss at par in slot 181, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick192 Rnd6 Tim Smith
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tim Smith. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
