Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB- NeedC TradesA+ FutureB
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Lions a B.

The Lions torched the value chart for Sahir West, taking him 60 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The Alexander pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

The Bolden pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at running back and wide receiver. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 KJ Bolden
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending Round 1, Pick 32 on KJ Bolden with running back and wide receiver unsolved.
Pick43 Rnd2 Kelley Jones
They bypassed pressing needs at running back and wide receiver to take Kelley Jones, a cornerback that was not the priority.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jamari Sharpe
A curious use of the 75th overall pick. Running back and wide receiver needed the pick; a cornerback in Jamari Sharpe did not.
Pick78 Rnd3 Princewill Umanmielen
They talked themselves into Princewill Umanmielen at pick No. 78, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick90 Rnd3 Samson Okunlola
No edge and no loss on Samson Okunlola in slot 90; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick101 Rnd3 Bear Alexander
Of all the spots to shop, they chose interior defensive lineman. Bear Alexander in the 101st pick leaves running back and wide receiver for later.
Pick102 Rnd3 Sahir West
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Sahir West at interior defensive lineman with running back and wide receiver open.
Pick127 Rnd4 Kameryn Crawford
Kameryn Crawford in pick No. 127 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick129 Rnd4 Marcus Neal Jr.
A want over a need in the 129th overall pick: Marcus Neal Jr. adds a safety while running back and wide receiver keeps waiting.
Pick130 Rnd4 Luke Montgomery
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Luke Montgomery in the 130th pick, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick131 Rnd4 Ian Moore
They jumped the gun on Ian Moore, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The roster fit checks out.
Pick205 Rnd6 Dylan Raiola
Dylan Raiola at pick 205 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick225 Rnd7 Andrew Rappleyea
Andrew Rappleyea at the Round 7 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick253 Rnd7 Sammy Omosigho
They did well to land Sammy Omosigho in Round 7, Pick 32, just ahead of his grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
