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

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Rams took Darius Robinson at pick 83, roughly 38 spots before his name belonged.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They banked enough surplus on Fautanu to cover a lot of smaller sins.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In pick No. 19 they get a lockdown presence outside, even if it was a touch early. Need was not the driver here.
Pick51 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
Troy Fautanu at pick 51 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick83 Rnd3 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at slot 83 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick100 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at No. 100 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick153 Rnd5 Renardo Green
Renardo Green in the 153rd pick is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick154 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
No edge and no loss on Braelon Allen in the 154th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick177 Rnd6 Roger Rosengarten
They took Roger Rosengarten at par in pick No. 177, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick191 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
A wild overpay on Gabe Hall in Round 6, Pick 16, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick212 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
By-the-book stuff, De'Corian Clark at the 212th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
You do not let a safety like Josh Proctor reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick218 Rnd6 Darius Muasau
This one needs a full-page explanation: Darius Muasau in the 218th pick, miles early. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
