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

The Lions did not so much draft Marcus Major as overpay for him, 276 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. A mixed bag that lands at C.

The Johnson pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back.

A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want.

In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Landon Jackson
In the Round 1 slot they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
A slide stopped in Round 2, Pick 28, with Donovan Ezeiruaku worth more than the price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick102 Rnd3 Luke Kandra
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Luke Kandra well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick130 Rnd4 Pat Bryant
A wild overpay on Pat Bryant in the 130th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It fills a real need, too.
Pick196 Rnd6 Marcus Major
Marcus Major in slot 196 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick222 Rnd7 Ashton Gillotte
A edge rusher of that caliber at the 222nd pick is the definition of value, full stop. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick228 Rnd7 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson at the 228th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick244 Rnd7 Jah Joyner
They will replay Jah Joyner at slot 244 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
