Grand theft in the 246th overall pick: the Lions steal Martinez and grade out a B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Damien Martinez got past him. The Lions do not have to explain a thing at the 246th overall pick.

If Tuimoloau pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 JT Tuimoloau
In pick 28 they get a double-digit-sack hope, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 Deone Walker
Deone Walker in No. 60 is fair value, right on his grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick101 Rnd3 Jake Majors
They took Jake Majors at par in the 101st overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick133 Rnd4 Savion Williams
The board fumbled Savion Williams all the way to Round 4, Pick 32, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick198 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at pick No. 198 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick227 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
A quiet steal in the Round 7 slot: Carson Vinson for less than the market said. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick246 Rnd7 Damien Martinez
Damien Martinez at the 246th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
