Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Lions and Lew: B+.

The real work happened on the phones. The Lions fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B+.

Landing Lew that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
In Round 1, Pick 18 they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
The board had Emmanuel Pregnon higher than the 50th overall pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick82 Rnd3 Connor Lew
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 82nd pick is the definition of value, full stop. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick118 Rnd4 Skyler Gill-Howard
They jumped the gun on Skyler Gill-Howard, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick176 Rnd5 Rayshaun Benny
Rayshaun Benny in pick 176 is fair value, right on his grade. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick186 Rnd6 Isaiah Jatta
A premium they did not need to pay, Isaiah Jatta a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick203 Rnd6 Miller Moss
Miller Moss at the Round 6 slot is money in the bank, a quarterback taken below his worth. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick212 Rnd6 Barion Brown
A reasonable price with a little left over, Barion Brown in pick 212. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick222 Rnd7 Riley Mahlman
Riley Mahlman at the 222nd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
