I think this shows a few things. Personally, I believe if you hit on 3 players in a single Draft you've done very well. Look at New England's 2015 Draft- Brown, Flowers and Mason- all excellent value picks where they were taken. I could care less what any of the other 8 players they drafted that year do or don't do. That was a good draft. They got one of the top 20 players in that Draft at #32 and two 2nd round quality players in Flowers and Mason in the 4th round.
And if you really do look at the Rams 2012-2015 Drafts where did they
really miss? Quick, Pead and Robinson. I'll toss in Barrett Jones even though he was a 4th round pick (at the time I thought it was a home run getting him there...). Swap Jake Matthews for Robinson and 2014 would be one stellar Draft. As is it's still good.
I don't think the script has been written on Havenstein, J. Brown and Wichmann. I think those three could very well look much better in years 3 and 4 than they did in year 2.
The Rams' problem is they swung and missed in personnel decisions at QB and WR
way too much in a league where passing is so important and therefore (bad) decisions at those spots get amplified.
