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

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Drew Bobo at pick 150, a reach of 34 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They went 2 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick45 Rnd2 Jamari Johnson
No drama and no debate, Jamari Johnson went about where he belonged in the 45th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick115 Rnd4 Shadre Hurst
Shadre Hurst at the 115th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick150 Rnd5 Drew Bobo
This one needs a full-page explanation: Drew Bobo in pick 150, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
