Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Lions.

Every other box got a look, but linebacker did not. The Lions will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Jones. On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In Round 1, Pick 29 they get a sticky cover corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick61 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
Adisa Isaac in pick 61 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick73 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in No. 73 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick92 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
They took Zak Zinter at par in the 92nd overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick166 Rnd5 Justin Rogers
Justin Rogers at the Round 5 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick207 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones slid further than he should have, and slot 207 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick250 Rnd7 Demani Richardson
A tidy little value on Demani Richardson in the 250th pick, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
