Draft Grade — Lions
Overall C
ValueC NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Lions bled value on every deal, hence the C.

The Eric O'Neill selection is the head-turner. The Lions reached 83 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. On value alone, Delp makes the weekend a net positive.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick105 Rnd4 Jalen Farmer
No edge and no loss on Jalen Farmer in No. 105; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick118 Rnd4 Genesis Smith
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Genesis Smith at the Round 4 slot is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick128 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. in pick No. 128 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick145 Rnd5 Oscar Delp
They let Oscar Delp come to them and pounced at the 145th overall pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick157 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
They paid a round early for Kevin Coleman Jr. in the 157th pick, more than the board wanted. The roster fit checks out.
Pick181 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
Aaron Graves at pick 181 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick186 Rnd6 Eric O'Neill
A wild overpay on Eric O'Neill in pick No. 186, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick205 Rnd6 Kaelon Black
Kaelon Black in pick 205 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick213 Rnd6 Bryce Foster
They reached a country mile for Bryce Foster at the Round 6 slot, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick222 Rnd7 John Michael Gyllenborg
A big swing on John Michael Gyllenborg at the 222nd overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
