Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Rams let Schwesinger fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Carson Schwesinger got past him. The Rams do not have to explain a thing at pick No. 127. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

They will answer for taking linebacker early while safety, offensive lineman and other spots went begging. They punted on safety, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the safety spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In pick 26 they get a seam-stretching tight end, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick90 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
Somehow Azareye'h Thomas was still sitting there in No. 90, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick101 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
Chris Paul Jr. slipping to pick No. 101 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick127 Rnd4 Carson Schwesinger
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Carson Schwesinger at linebacker with safety, offensive lineman and other spots open.
Pick190 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser in the 190th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick195 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
They let Cobee Bryant come to them and pounced at the Round 6 slot. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick201 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the 201st pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick202 Rnd6 DJ Giddens
Steal is underselling it; DJ Giddens at Round 6, Pick 26 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
