Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Lions cashed the board's mistake on Williams: B.

The Lions did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Savion Williams fell into the 133rd pick.

Reaching for Jones left real value on the table behind him. The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Princely Umanmielen
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get juice off the edge. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Value with a capital V on Aireontae Ersery in pick No. 60, a genuine coup. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick101 Rnd3 Sai'vion Jones
Sai'vion Jones in slot 101 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick133 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at No. 133 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The roster fit checks out.
Pick198 Rnd6 Nohl Williams
They robbed the room for Nohl Williams here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
