Draft Grade — Rams
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesC+ FutureC
The Rams answered their biggest question with Williams. Grade: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Renardo Green had no business being available in pick No. 155, and the Rams did the only sane thing and turned in the card. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

Everything downstream of Caleb Williams depends on Caleb Williams, and the building knows it. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In slot 19 they get a long-term answer under center, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick52 Rnd2 Rome Odunze
Rome Odunze at pick No. 52 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick83 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
A straight-up fair deal on Kris Abrams-Draine at the 83rd pick, value and slot in agreement. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick99 Rnd3 Brandon Dorlus
They will replay Brandon Dorlus at the 99th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick154 Rnd5 James Williams
The board fumbled James Williams all the way to No. 154, and they scooped it up. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick155 Rnd5 Renardo Green
Taking Renardo Green in pick 155 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd6 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell in Round 6, Pick 42 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick254 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
Circle this one: Garret Greenfield at slot 254 is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
