It’s been a month since the 2023 NFL draft and although we still don’t have a better idea of how the Rams’ class will turn out, it looks encouraging on paper. With 14 players selected, it was one shy of the largest in NFL history and by far the biggest of the Sean McVay era.
Each year, Rene Bugner compiles draft grades from a large number of experts and comes up with a GPA for each team. This year, he collected grades from 29 different outlets, some of which graded easier than others.
The Rams’ grades ranged from a D+ to an A, with a whole bunch of B-level grades in between. The result was a 2.78 GPA for Los Angeles, which ranked 19th in the NFL. It was third among NFC West teams. The Seahawks ranked fourth with a 3.61 ERA, followed by the Cardinals at No. 5 with a 3.41 ERA. Fans will be pleased to know the 49ers had the lowest GPA by a wide margin, finishing with a 1.78 – the only team lower than a 2.22.
