Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Lions
Overall

FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Lions: B. There is a lot to like until you notice edge rusher is still a hole. The Lions never got to the one that mattered most. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.
Reaching for Miller left real value on the table behind him. That Moss pick is the receipt they will wave around later.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Mansoor Delane
In pick No. 17 they get a lockdown presence outside, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick50
Rnd2
Blake Miller
A premium they did not need to pay, Blake Miller a notch or two before his time. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick118
Rnd4
Logan Jones
They liked Logan Jones enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 118. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick155
Rnd5
Albert Regis
A tidy little value on Albert Regis in the 155th overall pick, a step better than break-even. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick186
Rnd6
Isaiah Nwokobia
By-the-book stuff, Isaiah Nwokobia at the Round 6 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick203
Rnd6
Miller Moss
Nice patience on Miller Moss, who had no business lasting to the 203rd pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick212
Rnd6
J. Michael Sturdivant
A straight-up fair deal on J. Michael Sturdivant at slot 212, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick222
Rnd7
Dominic Zvada
They went early on Dominic Zvada in No. 222, and the value did not follow. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
