I think most would consider the Rams to have drafted pretty well overall (especially without 1st round picks) since 2017. So how many of their draft picks have actually made an "immediate impact?" I loosely set the bar at 300 snaps as a rookie. Since 2017 (36 draft picks total) this is who has done that:

Taylor Rapp (2019)- 823 snaps
Cooper Kupp (2017)- 736
John Johnson (2017)- 715
Jordan Fuller (2020)- 707
David Edwards (2019)- 690
Bobby Evans (2019)- 473
Samson Ebukam (2017)- 351
Tanzel Smart (2017)- 306
John Franklin-Myers (2018)- 301
Cam Akers (2020)- 297 (just missed the '300 snaps' bar but we can all agree he was an 'impact player' as a rookie)
Gerald Everett (2017)- 297

11 of 36 is ~30%. So if we stuck with that then the Rams should have 3(?) draft picks play that much in 2021. Maybe one gets 500+ snaps.
