Draft Grade — Lions
Overall A
ValueB NeedA- TradesA+ FutureA
The Lions turned the phones into found money: A.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Lions did exactly that with Jayson Jones in slot 251.

Landing Prather that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Danielle Hunter gives the group a proven body among the projects.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
In pick 30 they get a sticky cover corner, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A straight-up fair deal on Jackson Powers-Johnson at slot 62, value and slot in agreement. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick167 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha at Round 5, Pick 31 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick208 Rnd6 Kaden Prather
You do not let a wide receiver like Kaden Prather reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jayson Jones
Jayson Jones in pick No. 251 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
