Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Rams: B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Frank Gore Jr. at the 221st pick, a reach of 33 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

The Mustapha steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term starter on the line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick55 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cooper DeJean. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick87 Rnd3 Adisa Isaac
They went early on Adisa Isaac in pick No. 87, and the value did not follow. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick155 Rnd5 Kedon Slovis
Kedon Slovis is a better player than the 155th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick160 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha slid further than he should have, and pick 160 is lovely value for the safety. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick192 Rnd6 Ricky White
A tidy bit of business in No. 192, where Ricky White graded well above the range. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick214 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
No drama and no debate, Miles Frazier went about where he belonged in the 214th pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216 Rnd6 Khris Bogle
Khris Bogle at pick No. 216 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick218 Rnd6 Austin Stogner
A premium they did not need to pay, Austin Stogner a notch or two before his time. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick221 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Frank Gore Jr. in No. 221, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
