Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB-
Muhammad III should have been long gone. The Rams pounced, and earned a B+.

You build a draft on nights like this. Moose Muhammad III had no business being available in pick 205, and the Rams did the only sane thing and turned in the card. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Tyler Boyd pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but safety.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson at No. 17 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick45 Rnd2 Carson Beck
Carson Beck in Round 2, Pick 13 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick49 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan at pick No. 49 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick77 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
A quiet steal in the Round 3 slot: Mekhi Wingo for less than the market said. The roster fit checks out.
Pick150 Rnd5 Cade Stover
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Cade Stover in slot 150. Where it fits the depth chart is the real question.
Pick160 Rnd5 Cedric Gray
A tidy bit of business in pick 160, where Cedric Gray graded well above the range. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick205 Rnd6 Moose Muhammad III
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Moose Muhammad III in the 205th overall pick, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick214 Rnd6 Bru McCoy
They barely believed it either: Bru McCoy still on the board at the 214th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick215 Rnd6 Ben Bywater
They read the board right and Ben Bywater was the payoff at No. 215. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jalen Catalon
They took Jalen Catalon at par in the 216th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. This was not a hole anyone had circled.
Pick218 Rnd6 Omar Speights
Omar Speights in slot 218 is fair value, right on his grade. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick221 Rnd7 Tyler Batty
Tyler Batty in pick 221 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jaxson Dart
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jaxson Dart. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
