Draft Grade — Rams
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Rams did enough to get by: C+.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Rams started one anyway for Joe Milton III, 62 picks ahead of schedule. A mixed bag that lands at C+.

A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Darius Robinson
In Round 1, Pick 19 they get a bendy edge with upside, even if it was a touch early. A real need, handled.
Pick52 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A conviction pick on T'Vondre Sweat at No. 52 that the board grades a round light. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick83 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
A premium they did not need to pay, Khyree Jackson a notch or two before his time. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick99 Rnd3 Jared Wiley
A wild overpay on Jared Wiley in slot 99, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
Pick154 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in the 154th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick155 Rnd5 Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson at pick No. 155 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick196 Rnd6 Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight in the 196th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick209 Rnd6 Dylan McMahon
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dylan McMahon this early at the 209th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick213 Rnd6 Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones at No. 213 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd6 Evan Anderson
They talked themselves into Evan Anderson at slot 217, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick254 Rnd7 Jaylon Carlies
A reach for Jaylon Carlies in Round 7, Pick 34; a little patience would have been rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
