Draft Grade — Rams
Overall
D-
ValueA

TradesF
FutureD-
Maye is the Rams' new face under center. Grade: D-. Somebody in Round 6, Pick 38 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Rams sat still while Will Shipley, the No. 108 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. Too much went sideways, and the D- is the honest tally.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. Everything downstream of Drake Maye depends on Drake Maye, and the building knows it.
They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.
The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Drake Maye
In Round 1, Pick 19 they get a franchise quarterback at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
Olumuyiwa Fashanu
Somehow Olumuyiwa Fashanu was still sitting there in slot 27, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick35
Rnd2
Laiatu Latu
Circle this one: Laiatu Latu at pick No. 35 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick52
Rnd2
Tyler Nubin
Tyler Nubin at No. 52 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick66
Rnd3
Xavier Legette
You do not let a wide receiver like Xavier Legette reach pick 66 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick83
Rnd3
Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at the Round 3 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick99
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at Round 3, Pick 36 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick154
Rnd5
Marshawn Kneeland
They will replay Marshawn Kneeland at slot 154 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick155
Rnd5
Kalen King
They read the board right and Kalen King was the payoff at the 155th overall pick. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick196
Rnd6
Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo in the 196th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick209
Rnd6
Jaylin Simpson
A cornerback of that caliber at pick No. 209 is the definition of value, full stop. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick213
Rnd6
Will Shipley
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Will Shipley in Round 6, Pick 38, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick217
Rnd6
Ro Torrence
They robbed the room for Ro Torrence here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick254
Rnd7
Jha'Quan Jackson
Steal is underselling it; Jha'Quan Jackson at slot 254 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
