Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Lions robbed the room for Pearsall. Final grade: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Ricky Pearsall tumbling to the Lions in the 251st overall pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

They will regret leaving safety for another day if the season turns on it. The Zinter pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 5 of 9 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In the 30th overall pick they get a problem off the edge at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62 Rnd2 Kalen King
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kalen King at No. 62. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick84 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
The board had cheaper options than Zak Zinter at pick No. 84, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick93 Rnd3 Nazir Stackhouse
No edge and no loss on Nazir Stackhouse in slot 93; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick130 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara in the 130th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick167 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott at the Round 5 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick208 Rnd6 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander in Round 6, Pick 33 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick251 Rnd7 Ricky Pearsall
They robbed the room for Ricky Pearsall here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
