Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Lions: B.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Lions spent slot 134 on Vincent Anthony Jr., a name the board had a full 59 spots lower. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

They will regret leaving linebacker for another day if the season turns on it. Getting McNeil-Warren where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Good work on the whole, with linebacker the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 A.J. Harris
A.J. Harris in pick 24 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick55 Rnd2 Trevor Goosby
A straight-up fair deal on Trevor Goosby at the Round 2 slot, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick121 Rnd4 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
They read the board right and Emmanuel McNeil-Warren was the payoff at pick No. 121. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Vincent Anthony Jr.
They talked themselves into Vincent Anthony Jr. at slot 134, and the board did not agree. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick164 Rnd5 Connor Tollison
They paid a round early for Connor Tollison in Round 5, Pick 24, more than the board wanted. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick198 Rnd6 Isaiah Jatta
Isaiah Jatta at the 198th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick218 Rnd7 Cam Calhoun
A tidy little value on Cam Calhoun in No. 218, a step better than break-even. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
