Draft Grade — Lions

The Lions worked the phones like thieves and earned a B. The Jackson Slater selection is the head-turner. The Lions reached 46 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Landing McCord that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Trey Hendrickson gives the group a proven body among the projects.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick60
Rnd2
Tre Harris
They paid sticker price for Tre Harris in the 60th pick, and that is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick81
Rnd3
Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at No. 81 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick102
Rnd3
Jackson Slater
They reached into another round for Jackson Slater, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick130
Rnd4
Kyle McCord
Nice patience on Kyle McCord, who had no business lasting to the Round 4 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
