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

The Lions spent real capital to be 50 picks early on Davin Vann, and the board is going to hold them to it.

That safety hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. However the rest shakes out, Huzzie at that price is a win they earned. They went 4 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 28th overall pick they get a go-to option on the outside, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Jordan Burch
They reached a country mile for Jordan Burch at pick No. 60, and the board is aghast. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick102 Rnd3 Jake Majors
They reached into another round for Jake Majors, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick130 Rnd4 Kaimon Rucker
Kaimon Rucker in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick196 Rnd6 Tyler Cooper
They took Tyler Cooper at par in the 196th pick, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick228 Rnd7 Davin Vann
A big swing on Davin Vann at pick 228, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick244 Rnd7 Alijah Huzzie
The board fumbled Alijah Huzzie all the way to pick No. 244, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
