Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Lions.

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 George Gumbs Jr. in No. 212. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

The Roberts steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They punted on safety, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
In the 17th pick they get an island corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50 Rnd2 Derrick Moore
Derrick Moore in slot 50 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick118 Rnd4 Dametrious Crownover
They talked themselves into Dametrious Crownover at the Round 4 slot, and the board did not agree. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick155 Rnd5 Mason Reiger
A real head-scratcher, Mason Reiger in pick 155 is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick186 Rnd6 Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts at No. 186 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick203 Rnd6 Pat Coogan
Pat Coogan at pick No. 203 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick212 Rnd6 George Gumbs Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, George Gumbs Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick222 Rnd7 Tyler Onyedim
They reached into another round for Tyler Onyedim, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
