Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Rams let Harden fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

The Rams did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Myles Harden fell into No. 217.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through running back. Bishop has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

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
Pick19 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the 19th overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick52 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in No. 52 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick83 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A reasonable price with a little left over, Cooper Beebe in slot 83. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick100 Rnd3 Cole Bishop
They paid a round early for Cole Bishop in Round 3, Pick 37, more than the board wanted. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick153 Rnd5 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau at the 153rd pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick154 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick177 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at pick No. 177 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick191 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
They jumped the gun on Joe Milton III, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick212 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
Circle this one: Tahj Washington at the 212th pick is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd6 Myles Harden
Somehow Myles Harden was still sitting there in Round 6, Pick 42, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick218 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in No. 218 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
