Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Lions: B-.

The tape said wait; the Lions did not. Eric Gentry went at Round 7, Pick 6, a good 56 picks before the board was ready.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Getting Dixon where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

On the needs board they went 6 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In pick 17 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker. A real need, handled.
Pick50 Rnd2 Max Iheanachor
Max Iheanachor in No. 50 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick118 Rnd4 Kyle Louis
They reached into another round for Kyle Louis, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick155 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
Tanner Koziol at Round 5, Pick 17 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick186 Rnd6 Bud Clark
No drama and no debate, Bud Clark went about where he belonged in the 186th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick203 Rnd6 Thaddeus Dixon
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Thaddeus Dixon at slot 203 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick212 Rnd6 Keyron Crawford
Keyron Crawford in the 212th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick222 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
A wild overpay on Eric Gentry in No. 222, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
