Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Rams let Keegan fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Trevor Keegan had no business being available in the 213th pick, and the Rams did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

A whole weekend of picks and safety is somehow still a want. Reaching for Wilson left real value on the table behind him.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In pick 19 they get a premier pass rusher, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick52 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They paid up for T'Vondre Sweat at slot 52 when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick83 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. is a better player than the 83rd overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick99 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the 99th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick154 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones in the Round 5 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick155 Rnd5 Brennan Jackson
Brennan Jackson in Round 5, Pick 19 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick196 Rnd6 Blake Watson
By-the-book stuff, Blake Watson at No. 196 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick209 Rnd6 Myles Harden
They will replay Myles Harden at pick No. 209 for years; that is how good the value is. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick213 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 213th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick217 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Somehow Jordan Magee was still sitting there in pick 217, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick254 Rnd7 Darius Muasau
They barely believed it either: Darius Muasau still on the board at the 254th pick. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
