Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Rams: B-.

The Rams clearly saw something nobody else did in LaDarius Henderson, taking him 51 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In Round 1, Pick 19 they get a problem off the edge. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick68 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley slipping to the 68th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick83 Rnd3 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
Dadrion Taylor-Demerson in pick No. 83 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick102 Rnd4 Renardo Green
Renardo Green at the Round 4 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick112 Rnd4 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. in slot 112 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick153 Rnd5 Anthony Gould
They liked Anthony Gould enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 153. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick154 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
They paid a round early for Trevor Keegan in the Round 5 slot, more than the board wanted. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick184 Rnd6 Elijah Jones
They jumped the gun on Elijah Jones, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick185 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
They took Steele Chambers at par in the 185th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick195 Rnd6 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson at No. 195 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick209 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace at Round 6, Pick 34 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick213 Rnd6 KT Leveston
A swing that ignored the value entirely, KT Leveston well ahead of where he belonged. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick217 Rnd6 Tip Reiman
Tip Reiman in pick 217 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It fills a real need, too.
Pick254 Rnd7 Jackson Sirmon
Jackson Sirmon at the 254th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
