Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesA FutureC+
The Lions kept it disciplined and banked a B.

Some picks age like wine; Hayden Hatten at the 251st overall pick will need to, sitting 92 spots clear of his grade.

They banked enough surplus on Sainristil to cover a lot of smaller sins. They will regret leaving linebacker for another day if the season turns on it. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In pick 32 they get a press-man option on the boundary at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
No edge and no loss on Chris Braswell in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick73 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A reach on Cooper Beebe in the 73rd pick; the board had better options right there. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick93 Rnd3 Tyler Davis
Tyler Davis in pick No. 93 is fair value, right on his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick103 Rnd4 Mike Sainristil
Value with a capital V on Mike Sainristil in the 103rd overall pick, a genuine coup. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
A conviction pick on Beaux Limmer at slot 134 that the board grades a round light. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick167 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at pick No. 167 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick208 Rnd6 Ethan Driskell
Ethan Driskell is a better player than Round 6, Pick 33 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick251 Rnd7 Hayden Hatten
Hayden Hatten at the 251st overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
