Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Rams checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Rams were there to profit. Tahj Washington, the No. 189 name on the board, should have been long gone before the 209th overall pick.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Raym pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the 19th pick they get a bendy edge with upside. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick52 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Braden Fiske. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick83 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni at the 83rd pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick99 Rnd3 Cole Bishop
No drama and no debate, Cole Bishop went about where he belonged in pick 99. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick154 Rnd5 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in pick No. 154 is fair value, right on his grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick155 Rnd5 Marist Liufau
The board had cheaper options than Marist Liufau at No. 155, and it noticed. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick196 Rnd6 Kendall Milton
Kendall Milton at Round 6, Pick 21 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick209 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
They barely believed it either: Tahj Washington still on the board at slot 209. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick213 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
JD Bertrand in the Round 6 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick217 Rnd6 Andrew Raym
A real head-scratcher, Andrew Raym in the 217th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick254 Rnd7 Bub Means
Nice patience on Bub Means, who had no business lasting to the Round 7 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
