Grand theft in the 222nd pick: the Lions steal McAlister and grade out a B. The Lions did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Eric McAlister fell into pick 222.
The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Graves reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Avieon Terrell
In the 17th pick they get a press-man option on the boundary. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50
Rnd2
Gennings Dunker
Gennings Dunker in the 50th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick155
Rnd5
Aaron Graves
A conviction pick on Aaron Graves at pick 155 that the board grades a round light. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick212
Rnd6
Jadon Canady
Good price on Jadon Canady in No. 212, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick222
Rnd7
Eric McAlister
Steal is underselling it; Eric McAlister at slot 222 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
