Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesB FutureB-
Larceny in pick No. 73 lands the Lions a B, Coleman and all.

You could see the war room lean forward. Keon Coleman at Round 3, Pick 9 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want. On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
Fair-plus on Terrion Arnold, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick61 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
A quiet steal in the Round 2 slot: Adisa Isaac for less than the market said. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick73 Rnd3 Keon Coleman
They barely believed it either: Keon Coleman still on the board at the 73rd pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick99 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter at slot 99 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick133 Rnd4 Andru Phillips
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Andru Phillips at pick No. 133. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick163 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
Value with a capital V on Justin Eboigbe in pick 163, a genuine coup. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick207 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
Nothing to complain about; Drake Nugent went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick246 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
You do not let a safety like Josh Proctor reach the 246th overall pick and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick247 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield at slot 247 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
