Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB FutureC+
Larceny in the 58th overall pick lands the Rams a B-, Leavitt and all.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Sam Leavitt, the No. 38 name on the board, stolen at pick 58. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Anthony Hill Jr.
In pick 13 they get the heartbeat of the defense. More want than need.
Pick26 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In the 26th overall pick they get a potential shutdown corner, and a steal at that. Need was not the driver here.
Pick58 Rnd2 Sam Leavitt
Sam Leavitt in the Round 2 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick73 Rnd3 Eric Rivers
Eric Rivers in No. 73 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick142 Rnd5 Kage Casey
A quiet steal in pick No. 142: Kage Casey for less than the market said. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick165 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa at the 165th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick198 Rnd6 Elliot Washington II
They paid sticker price for Elliot Washington II in Round 6, Pick 22, and that is fine. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick213 Rnd6 Riley Mahlman
No drama and no debate, Riley Mahlman went about where he belonged in slot 213. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
