Draft Grade — Lions
Overall D+
ValueF NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Hard to find the plan in the Lions' weekend. D+.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Amari Kight, 283 picks early at the Round 1 slot. Put together, it is a D+.

The Burch pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The Lions indulged a want in Crawshaw while a need in linebacker, quarterback and other spots stayed open.

For all the activity, linebacker went untouched, which is hard to explain.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Amari Kight
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get a long-term starter on the line, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Kobe Hudson
Kobe Hudson at the 60th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick102 Rnd3 Jeremy Crawshaw
They bypassed pressing needs at linebacker, quarterback and other spots to take Jeremy Crawshaw, a specialist that was not the priority.
Pick130 Rnd4 Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders at No. 130 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick196 Rnd6 Jacob Parrish
They barely believed it either: Jacob Parrish still on the board at pick No. 196. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick228 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
They robbed the room for Seth McLaughlin here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick244 Rnd7 Jordan Burch
Somehow Jordan Burch was still sitting there in pick 244, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
