Draft Grade — Rams
Overall
B-
ValueB
NeedB-

FutureD
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Rams. Boards are made to be trusted, and the Rams shredded theirs for Javontae Jean-Baptiste. He came off 30 spots early, and the room will hear about it.
The Paul steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Spending an early pick on cornerback with tight end and interior defensive lineman open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Nate Wiggins
In the 19th overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. More want than need.
Pick29
Rnd1
Kool-Aid McKinstry
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went cornerback with Kool-Aid McKinstry while clear needs at tight end and interior defensive lineman sat open.
Pick45
Rnd2
Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Ennis Rakestraw Jr. adds a cornerback and leaves tight end and interior defensive lineman untouched.
Pick74
Rnd3
Patrick Paul
Somehow Patrick Paul was still sitting there in Round 3, Pick 10, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick100
Rnd3
Malachi Corley
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Malachi Corley in pick 100, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick110
Rnd4
Audric Estime
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Audric Estime in slot 110. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick153
Rnd5
Ty'Ron Hopper
They paid sticker price for Ty'Ron Hopper in pick 153, and that is fine. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick191
Rnd6
Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader at Round 6, Pick 16 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick212
Rnd6
Omar Speights
They paid up for Omar Speights at the Round 6 slot when waiting would have done the job. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick217
Rnd6
Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor in the 217th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick218
Rnd6
Javontae Jean-Baptiste
Javontae Jean-Baptiste at slot 218 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick253
Rnd7
Jha'Quan Jackson
Jha'Quan Jackson at pick No. 253 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick254
Rnd7
Darius Muasau
A quiet steal in No. 254: Darius Muasau for less than the market said. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick257
Rnd7
Taulia Tagovailoa
Taulia Tagovailoa at the 257th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
