Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Rams for Clark: B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how De'Corian Clark got past him. The Rams do not have to explain a thing at slot 253.

They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They are betting Jacobs proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In Round 1, Pick 21 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. A real need, handled.
Pick53 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
A quiet steal in the 53rd pick: Troy Fautanu for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick95 Rnd3 D.J. James
They barely believed it either: D.J. James still on the board at slot 95. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick132 Rnd4 Spencer Rattler
You do not let a quarterback like Spencer Rattler reach No. 132 and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick153 Rnd5 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner in the 153rd overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick164 Rnd5 Connor Colby
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 164 with a little surplus value in Connor Colby. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick192 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
They paid up for Curtis Jacobs at pick 192 when waiting would have done the job. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick214 Rnd6 Duce Chestnut
Duce Chestnut in the Round 6 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick216 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
Nice patience on Cornelius Johnson, who had no business lasting to pick 216. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick218 Rnd6 Francisco Mauigoa
Francisco Mauigoa at pick No. 218 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick221 Rnd7 Jaylon Carlies
By-the-book stuff, Jaylon Carlies at the 221st pick squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick253 Rnd7 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark at the 253rd overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
