Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Lions: B.

The Tyler Baron pick is the one that will follow the Lions into the fall. They took him 22 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

The Moore value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want.

On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In the 28th overall pick they get juice off the edge at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
They paid sticker price for Donovan Jackson in No. 60, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick102 Rnd3 Tai Felton
Tai Felton in the 102nd pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. The roster fit checks out.
Pick135 Rnd4 Tyler Baron
They reached a country mile for Tyler Baron at Round 4, Pick 33, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick155 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
A quiet steal in pick 155: Malachi Moore for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick228 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa in slot 228 is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick244 Rnd7 Jermari Harris
Jermari Harris is a better player than pick 244 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
