FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Lions: B. Some picks age like wine; Jude Bowry at the Round 3 slot will need to, sitting 48 spots clear of his grade. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Brailsford. Spending an early pick on interior defensive lineman with quarterback and running back open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.
Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick18
Rnd1
Mansoor Delane
In the 18th pick they get a sticky cover corner, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50
Rnd2
Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks in slot 50 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick82
Rnd3
Jude Bowry
They reached into another round for Jude Bowry, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick118
Rnd4
Mikail Kamara
This one needs a full-page explanation: Mikail Kamara in the Round 4 slot, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick128
Rnd4
Darrell Jackson Jr.
Of all the spots to shop, they chose interior defensive lineman. Darrell Jackson Jr. in No. 128 leaves quarterback and running back for later.
Pick157
Rnd5
Parker Brailsford
They robbed the room for Parker Brailsford here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick163
Rnd5
Marlin Klein
They did well to land Marlin Klein in pick 163, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick181
Rnd5
DJ Campbell
They liked DJ Campbell enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 181. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick205
Rnd6
Josh Cameron
The board had Josh Cameron higher than Round 6, Pick 24, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick213
Rnd6
Red Murdock
They read the board right and Red Murdock was the payoff at the 213th pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick222
Rnd7
Robert Spears-Jennings
They paid a round early for Robert Spears-Jennings in the Round 7 slot, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
