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

Nobody else had Eric O'Neill anywhere near slot 187. The Lions did, by 30 spots, and that gap is the whole story. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They went 5 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In Round 1, Pick 17 they get a ballhawk on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50 Rnd2 Austin Siereveld
A wild overpay on Austin Siereveld in pick 50, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick118 Rnd4 Charles Jagusah
Charles Jagusah at the 118th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jakobe Thomas
They paid sticker price for Jakobe Thomas in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick156 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
No drama and no debate, Aaron Graves went about where he belonged in pick No. 156. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick187 Rnd6 Eric O'Neill
Eric O'Neill in No. 187 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick204 Rnd6 Trebor Pena
Trebor Pena at pick 204 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick222 Rnd7 Jordan White
They paid up for Jordan White at Round 7, Pick 6 when waiting would have done the job. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
