Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B
ValueA NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 196th pick lands the Rams a B, Hart and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Cam Hart tumbling to the Rams in pick 196 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 19th overall pick they get a home-run threat at receiver, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick52 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
They barely believed it either: Quinyon Mitchell still on the board at Round 2, Pick 20. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick83 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Taking Payton Wilson in pick 83 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick99 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie in the 99th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick154 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker at No. 154 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick155 Rnd5 Marcus Harris
A reasonable price with a little left over, Marcus Harris in slot 155. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick196 Rnd6 Cam Hart
Somehow Cam Hart was still sitting there in the Round 6 slot, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick209 Rnd6 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at pick No. 209 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick213 Rnd6 Jacob Cowing
A wide receiver of that caliber at the 213th pick is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick217 Rnd6 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at slot 217 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick254 Rnd7 Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal at the 254th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
