Draft Grade — Lions

Grand theft in the 134th pick: the Lions steal Kandra and grade out a B-.

The board owed the Lions one, and it paid up: Luke Kandra, the No. 114 name on the board, sitting there at slot 134 like a gift left on the doorstep.

Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Williams pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Jack Sawyer
In the 28th pick they get a problem off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
No drama and no debate, Donovan Ezeiruaku went about where he belonged in No. 60. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick102 Rnd3 Jared Wilson
They took Jared Wilson at par in pick 102, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra in slot 134 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick196 Rnd6 Chimere Dike
By-the-book stuff, Chimere Dike at pick No. 196 squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick225 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
A tidy bit of business in the 225th overall pick, where Jermari Harris graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick228 Rnd7 John Williams
John Williams at Round 7, Pick 12 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick244 Rnd7 Hunter Wohler
Hunter Wohler in the Round 7 slot is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
