Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Rams kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The Rams put a flag in the ground for Kage Casey, 49 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

It is not that Cisse is a bad player; it is that the Rams had louder needs to answer first. They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

The back end got a real overhaul.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In pick 13 they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick29 Rnd1 Brandon Cisse
A want over a need in pick No. 29: Brandon Cisse adds a cornerback while running back and edge rusher keeps waiting.
Pick61 Rnd2 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter at Round 2, Pick 29 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. The roster fit checks out.
Pick93 Rnd3 Kage Casey
Kage Casey at the 93rd pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick167 Rnd5 Bud Clark
They left a pile of value on the table to take Bud Clark this early at slot 167. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick205 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III at No. 205 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick208 Rnd6 Haynes King
Haynes King at pick 208 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick232 Rnd7 Hykeem Williams
No edge and no loss on Hykeem Williams in the 232nd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick250 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
A real head-scratcher, Eric Gentry in Round 7, Pick 34 is miles ahead of his ranking. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick256 Rnd7 Luke Hasz
Luke Hasz at slot 256 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It fills a real need, too.
