Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Rams, and a B- to prove it.

The Rams spent real capital to be 50 picks early on Xavier Thomas, and the board is going to hold them to it. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

Worthy at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain.

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

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In the 19th overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick51 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims in No. 51 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick83 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Steal is underselling it; Xavier Worthy at pick 83 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick100 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley at slot 100 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick153 Rnd5 Johnny Dixon
They will replay Johnny Dixon at the 153rd pick for years; that is how good the value is. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick154 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
No edge and no loss on Khristian Boyd in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick177 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at pick 177 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick191 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
They reached a country mile for Gabe Hall at No. 191, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick212 Rnd6 Zion Logue
They reached into another round for Zion Logue, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick217 Rnd6 Xavier Thomas
Xavier Thomas at the 217th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick218 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
A tidy little value on Jawhar Jordan in Round 6, Pick 43, a step better than break-even. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
