Draft Grade — Lions
Overall C
ValueF NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A mixed bag for the Lions, and a C to match.

The Lions treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending slot 196 on Noah Daniels a full 200 spots early. Call it a C and check back in two years.

That is a tight end worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The offensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 4 of 9 of the wish list covered. The back end got a real overhaul.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Darien Porter
In pick 28 they get a potential shutdown corner, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 JJ Pegues
Value said wait; JJ Pegues in the 60th pick says they were not listening. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick102 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
Jalen Royals at slot 102 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick130 Rnd4 Maxen Hook
Maxen Hook at No. 130 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick196 Rnd6 Noah Daniels
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Noah Daniels well ahead of where he belonged. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick228 Rnd7 Elijah Arroyo
You do not let a tight end like Elijah Arroyo reach pick No. 228 and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick244 Rnd7 Tyler Loop
Tyler Loop at slot 244 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
