Draft Grade — Lions
Overall C
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureC+
The Lions bled value on every deal, hence the C.

Somebody took the Lions to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it.

Sinnott has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.

If Laiatu Latu and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In pick 18 they get a problem off the edge at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette in No. 38 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick66 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Nothing to complain about; Kingsley Suamataia went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick98 Rnd3 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
The board had Dadrion Taylor-Demerson higher than the 98th overall pick, and the safety fell to them anyway. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick110 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in the Round 4 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick164 Rnd5 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern at Round 5, Pick 28 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick201 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Joe Milton III. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick205 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson in the 205th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick249 Rnd7 Jalen Sundell
Good price on Jalen Sundell in the Round 7 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
