Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Lions let Jackson fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Domani Jackson had no business being available in No. 155, and the Lions did the only sane thing and turned in the card. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. On the needs board they went 6 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 safety the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In the 17th pick they get an island corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks at No. 50 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick118 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at slot 118 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick155 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson at the 155th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick180 Rnd5 Connor Tollison
Nothing to complain about; Connor Tollison went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick188 Rnd6 Kevin Coleman Jr.
Kevin Coleman Jr. slid further than he should have, and the Round 6 slot is lovely value for the wide receiver. It fills a real need, too.
Pick209 Rnd6 Aaron Anderson
Taking Aaron Anderson in pick No. 209 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick222 Rnd7 Taylen Green
They barely believed it either: Taylen Green still on the board at Round 7, Pick 6. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
