Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Lions checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

The Eric O'Neill selection is the head-turner. The Lions reached 30 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up. On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Good work on the whole, with linebacker the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Austin Siereveld
A big swing on Austin Siereveld at slot 50, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick118 Rnd4 Charles Jagusah
A straight-up fair deal on Charles Jagusah at No. 118, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jakobe Thomas
Jakobe Thomas in pick No. 134 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick156 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
By-the-book stuff, Aaron Graves at pick 156 squarely in line with his ranking. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick187 Rnd6 Eric O'Neill
Eric O'Neill at the 187th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick204 Rnd6 Trebor Pena
Good price on Trebor Pena in the Round 6 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick222 Rnd7 Jordan White
They paid up for Jordan White at pick 222 when waiting would have done the job. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
