The steal of the weekend belongs to the Rams and Kitselman: B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Miles Kitselman got past him. The Rams do not have to explain a thing at the 251st pick.

The cost of the Shelton reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
Fair-plus on Mansoor Delane, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick61 Rnd2 Drew Shelton
This one needs a full-page explanation: Drew Shelton in No. 61, miles early. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick93 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
They robbed the room for Michael Taaffe here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick207 Rnd6 Chase Roberts
A reasonable price with a little left over, Chase Roberts in the Round 6 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick232 Rnd7 Cole Payton
No edge and no loss on Cole Payton in slot 232; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick251 Rnd7 Miles Kitselman
Miles Kitselman in the 251st pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick252 Rnd7 Charles Demmings
They read the board right and Charles Demmings was the payoff at the 252nd overall pick. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
