Draft Grade — Rams
Overall

FutureB-
Dixon should have been long gone. The Rams pounced, and earned a B-. The board owed the Rams one, and it paid up: Thaddeus Dixon, the No. 216 name on the board, sitting there at Round 7, Pick 36 like a gift left on the doorstep.
The safety hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They went 2 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick13
Rnd1
Mansoor Delane
In slot 13 they get a ballhawk on the outside. More want than need.
Pick61
Rnd2
Anthony Hill Jr.
Somehow Anthony Hill Jr. was still sitting there in the 61st pick, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick93
Rnd3
Logan Jones
A clean, defensible pick in Round 3, Pick 29 with a little surplus value in Logan Jones. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick207
Rnd6
DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell at pick No. 207 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick232
Rnd7
Jeff Caldwell
Value with a capital V on Jeff Caldwell in the Round 7 slot, a genuine coup. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick251
Rnd7
Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III at No. 251 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick252
Rnd7
Thaddeus Dixon
Thaddeus Dixon in pick 252 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
