GlenPhelps DRAFTING FOR THELions
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Lions
Overall
B-
ValueB-
NeedB+
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Lions checked most of the boxes and earned a B-. The Lions put a flag in the ground for Garret Greenfield, 52 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.
The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. However the rest shakes out, Dixon at that price is a win they earned. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick61
Rnd2
Ricky Pearsall
They did well to land Ricky Pearsall in Round 2, Pick 29, just ahead of his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick73
Rnd3
Kris Abrams-Draine
The board had cheaper options than Kris Abrams-Draine at the 73rd pick, and it noticed. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick164
Rnd5
Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield at pick 164 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick201
Rnd6
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in slot 201 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The roster fit checks out.
Pick205
Rnd6
Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon slipping to pick No. 205 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
