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. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it. They banked enough surplus on Robinson to cover a lot of smaller sins.

The L'Jarius Sneed pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
