Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueC NeedA- TradesA+ FutureB-
The Lions fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Cedric Gray in pick 92, a good 43 spots before the room expected him.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick37 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Ennis Rakestraw Jr. at pick No. 37 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick61 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
They talked themselves into Sedrick Van Pran at pick 61, and the board did not agree. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick69 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
A reach for Mike Sainristil in the 69th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick73 Rnd3 Brandon Dorlus
No drama and no debate, Brandon Dorlus went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 9. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick92 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
They reached into another round for Cedric Gray, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick166 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
A conviction pick on Roger Rosengarten at the 166th overall pick that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick207 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
Good price on De'Corian Clark in Round 6, Pick 32, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The roster fit checks out.
Pick226 Rnd7 Mark Perry
Value said wait; Mark Perry in pick No. 226 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick250 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
They paid sticker price for Dwight McGlothern in the 250th pick, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
