Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B+
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
Nobody dealt better than the Lions this weekend: B+.

There is reaching, and then there is De'Corian Clark at the 163rd overall pick. The Lions jumped the board by 49 and dared it to prove them wrong.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up. Khalil Mack gives the group a proven body among the projects.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.

Pick Analysis
Pick37 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
A reasonable price with a little left over, Quinyon Mitchell in pick No. 37. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick61 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell in the 61st pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick73 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
They paid up for Braden Fiske at slot 73 when waiting would have done the job. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick92 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A reach for Dominick Puni in pick 92; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick163 Rnd5 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark at the Round 5 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick207 Rnd6 Hunter Nourzad
Hunter Nourzad in the 207th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick247 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
No edge and no loss on Trey Taylor in No. 247; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
