Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Lions.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Lions did exactly that with Jack Kelly in the 181st overall pick. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

However the rest shakes out, Klubnik at that price is a win they earned. Leaving safety unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On the needs board they went 7 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Good work on the whole, with safety the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Spencer Fano
In pick No. 17 they get protection for the quarterback. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50 Rnd2 Dani Dennis-Sutton
Dani Dennis-Sutton at the 50th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick118 Rnd4 Chris McClellan
Chris McClellan at No. 118 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick128 Rnd4 Jalen Farmer
They will replay Jalen Farmer at the Round 4 slot for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick157 Rnd5 TJ Hall
TJ Hall in pick 157 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick181 Rnd5 Jack Kelly
Jack Kelly at the 181st pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick205 Rnd6 Cade Klubnik
Somehow Cade Klubnik was still sitting there in No. 205, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick213 Rnd6 Kendrick Law
Kendrick Law at pick 213 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick222 Rnd7 Le'Veon Moss
Value with a capital V on Le'Veon Moss in Round 7, Pick 6, a genuine coup. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
