Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Rams: B-.

The war room fell hard for Taulia Tagovailoa, and it showed at pick 217: 71 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

However the rest shakes out, All at that price is a win they earned. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with safety chief among the fixes. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
Dallas Turner in Round 1, Pick 19 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick52 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
No edge and no loss on Braden Fiske in No. 52; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick83 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at the Round 3 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick99 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
By-the-book stuff, Braelon Allen at pick No. 99 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick154 Rnd5 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau at pick 154 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick155 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
A wild overpay on Ty'Ron Hopper in the 155th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick196 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon in the Round 6 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick209 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
A clean, defensible pick in No. 209 with a little surplus value in Jaylan Ford. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick213 Rnd6 Dominique Hampton
Dominique Hampton at the 213th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick217 Rnd6 Taulia Tagovailoa
They reached into another round for Taulia Tagovailoa, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick254 Rnd7 Erick All
They barely believed it either: Erick All still on the board at pick No. 254. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
