Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B-
ValueC NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Lions and Allar: B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Drew Allar, the 203rd pick, roughly 46 picks past where he belonged. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The cost of the O'Neill reach is exactly the players who went right after him. That linebacker hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Matayo Uiagalelei
In the Round 1 slot they get a double-digit-sack hope, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick50 Rnd2 Austin Barber
They went early on Austin Barber in pick 50, and the value did not follow. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick118 Rnd4 Tacario Davis
Tacario Davis in the 118th pick is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick136 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
Nothing to complain about; Parker Brailsford went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick158 Rnd5 Eric O'Neill
This one needs a full-page explanation: Eric O'Neill in pick No. 158, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick189 Rnd6 Adepoju Adebawore
Value said wait; Adepoju Adebawore in slot 189 says they were not listening. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick203 Rnd6 Drew Allar
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Drew Allar in No. 203, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick223 Rnd7 Peyton Bowen
Peyton Bowen in the 223rd overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
