Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Lions did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The war room fell hard for Vincent Anthony Jr., and it showed at the 134th overall pick: 59 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The McNeil-Warren value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

On the needs board they went 4 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 A.J. Harris
In the 24th pick they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick55 Rnd2 Trevor Goosby
Trevor Goosby at the 55th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick121 Rnd4 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
They let Emmanuel McNeil-Warren come to them and pounced at pick No. 121. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Vincent Anthony Jr.
They talked themselves into Vincent Anthony Jr. at the Round 4 slot, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick164 Rnd5 Connor Tollison
They paid up for Connor Tollison at pick 164 when waiting would have done the job. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick198 Rnd6 Isaiah Jatta
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Isaiah Jatta. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick218 Rnd7 Cam Calhoun
Cam Calhoun in the Round 7 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
