Something I noticed from scouting reports.

Some red herrings here IMO.
Yes the current Rams regime values intelligence. That was clear already last year.
But not intelligence in isolation. Always in combination with other key factors, such as college production and instincts and the normal measurables.
So they're not going to draft a 5'7"120 lb defensive end just cause he's smart.
What they ARE willing to sacrifice, looks like, is level of competition in college. Not completely, not with every pick, but that's there in their picks.
