Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB NeedA TradesB- FutureB-
The Lions kept it disciplined and banked a B.

For all the boxes ticked, the Lions skipped the loudest one: safety is exactly as bare as it was. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

Landing Sainristil that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In pick 30 they get an island corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Fair-plus on Chris Braswell, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick73 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
No edge and no loss on Christian Haynes in No. 73; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick93 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil is a better player than slot 93 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
