#14 - Owasso-WR-Miguel Evans

Owasso was right to think it needed help at wideout. 
Unfortunately, they missed the chance to trade this pick for a 
Speed 100 player, which they could have easily done. Instead 
they ended up with one of the best possession receivers in 
the game, and no one to stretch the field and take advantage 
of Ballard's arm.

#26-Owasso-OL-Bob Washington
#38-Owasso-OL-Irwin Lewis

I'm grouping these picks together because I like them so 
much. Aaron understood he needed an OL more than 
anything else. And he went for it. That is the sign of a great 
draft. Washington and Lewis were selected right where 
predicted, and the Rams can now piece together a smallish 
OL. They are still two trades away from being really good 
here, but this was a great step.

#50-Owasso-LB-Darryl Gardner

He comes in as the Rams' #2 linebacker, which is scary for the 
Rams. A great pick, addressing another area of the need. 

#62-Owasso-DL-Clarence Novacek

The Owasso DL will be trampled this season. They need 
strength here, and Novacek is a very one-dimensional speed 
rusher. Wyatt Cushman or Greg Clark would have been better 
picks.

#74-Owasso-WR-Tim Wallace

Guy Widell, Greg Clark et. al. would have helped the Rams 
more here.


OVERALL:
The Rams did a great job of bringing in a good QB, a good HB, 
and two good OL with their first four picks. That's 
commendable. Miguel Evans is a great asset, but should have 
been the second WR added, not the first. Daryl Gardner helps 
the team. After that, it's hard to see any of these guys helping 
the Rams. Still, a great draft.
