A little nervous about Higbee, excited about Cooper and Thomas, super excited about Goff, the rest I don't know much about. If Higbee can be controlled I'm OK with him. Curious what we're doing with Foles, looks like Goff, Keenum and Marion in that order of depth. Hope the hell we can sign Bolden or preferably Roddy White off of free agency.

B-

We got an 'A' once we signed Goff, … the rest is decoration. The Rams have gone without a proper quality, healthy, starting QB for far too long and our record is the proof. This is a new beginning, maybe not a phoenix rising story, but certainly a time we will all look back upon when it finally came together for us. We have a quality defense, we have a young new OL with a year under their belt, we have a young elite RB, now we have the guy who can find the receiver. 15 points in 4 games last season separated us from a 7 - 9 record to what could have been an 11 - 5 season, … now we are competitive. Welcome to the new Los Angeles Rams.

This draft was far, far better than what I expected. I figured we'd get one weapon for the offense out of 4 cut-able types. Snead and Fish went way beyond that. But don't worry man, if it doesn't work out you've covered yourself... :cool:

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, unless their opinion is wrong and you sir are very very wrong. Easily an A draft and the Rams finally have a complete roster

We got a franchise QB and just drafted damn good and productive players in college in this draft. The only pick I questioned was Hemmingway (seemed an odd pick) but will wait to see more of him before I judge him. All the other picks were just good football players. Were also doing really good on the UDFAs. Id give the draft a solid A- .

I give it a A
Goff
Higbee
Cooper
Thomas
Would have been at least a B without the other picks then add some of the free agents we pick up

LB depth was needed just as bad as DT. Don't really have room in the roster for another DB, so why draft one? Glad we didn't. DT depth we should all be confident that they'll find an UDFA.

I thought drafting a second TE was possible, wasn't expecting Hemmingway...but I trust them and honestly, if every other pick was a homerun, that still deserves an A+

enough with the grades already, how can anyone not see the Rams owned this draft?

I will criticize Fisher when need be and have when it was appropriate.

But this draft he slayed it.

Goff, Higs, Coop and Thomas.

Bravo guys.

A+. Love Higbee. Key piece really needed for the O. Cooper and Thomas look like players. Snead and Fisher making something out of late rounds. Goff is the prize. Rare skills moving in the pocket and passing the ball. We'll see what happens, but he has a chance to be exceptional.

Well, our offense is officially better than it was coming into the draft. I loved getting two wideouts and two tight ends to help out our franchise quarterback.

So, yeah, A+.

What's in a grade at this time? I like the direction. Goff and weapons to help him. Two big TE targets for Goff. A boat load of WR to compete. LBer depth. Very competitive UDFA's.

I don't like grading drafts but I'll say this: Snead and Fish outdid themselves this year. IF you had listed those players to me three months ago I would have said there's no way they could pull that off. They killed it IMO.

I'm going with an "A" ... and that is purely for the fact that they went after what we NEEDED ... were very creative in how they did it and didn't panic about anything. They worked this as best as possibly could have.

But a draft ruly can't be graded for a few yrs. I think these guys knocked this one out of the park filling both needs and value. And I put HIGH value on the QB
