St Brown DRAFTING FOR THELions
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Lions
Overall

FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Lions a B-. The Lions put a flag in the ground for Tyler Harrell, 108 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.
The offensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Sainristil steal is the beam this whole class leans on. On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but offensive lineman.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Quinyon Mitchell
In Round 1, Pick 30 they get a ballhawk on the outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62
Rnd2
Mekhi Wingo
By-the-book stuff, Mekhi Wingo at pick 62 squarely in line with his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick73
Rnd3
Junior Colson
No drama and no debate, Junior Colson went about where he belonged in pick No. 73. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick93
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
Value with a capital V on Mike Sainristil in No. 93, a genuine coup. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick167
Rnd5
Austin Booker
Austin Booker slipping to the 167th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick208
Rnd6
Jalen Berger
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jalen Berger. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick251
Rnd7
Tyler Harrell
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Harrell in No. 251, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
