Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Lions cashed the board's mistake on Rosemy-Jacksaint: B.

Call it larceny. Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint sat on the board until the 247th overall pick, and the Lions did not need to be asked twice. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

Every board in the league had Tupuola-Fetui lower, and that gap is the story. A whole weekend of picks and offensive lineman is somehow still a want. On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In pick 29 they get an island corner, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick61 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
A slide stopped in Round 2, Pick 29, with T.J. Tampa worth more than the price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick73 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
By-the-book stuff, Jaden Hicks at the 73rd overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick92 Rnd3 DeWayne Carter
They went early on DeWayne Carter in pick No. 92, and the value did not follow. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick163 Rnd5 Zion Tupuola-Fetui
Value said wait; Zion Tupuola-Fetui in No. 163 says they were not listening. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick207 Rnd6 Erick All
Erick All at slot 207 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick247 Rnd7 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
The board fumbled Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint all the way to the Round 7 slot, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
