Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueA- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Lions robbed the room for Harden. Final grade: B.

The board owed the Lions one, and it paid up: Myles Harden, the No. 184 name on the board, sitting there at the 249th overall pick like a gift left on the doorstep. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The Milton III pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. That offensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In Round 1, Pick 29 they get a press-man option on the boundary at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick61 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
They will replay Darius Robinson at pick No. 61 for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick73 Rnd3 Tyler Nubin
The board fumbled Tyler Nubin all the way to the 73rd overall pick, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick92 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
You do not let a cornerback like Mike Sainristil reach the 92nd pick and blink. They did not. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick163 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
They left a pile of value on the table to take Joe Milton III this early at No. 163. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick204 Rnd6 Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing in pick 204 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick249 Rnd7 Myles Harden
They barely believed it either: Myles Harden still on the board at slot 249. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
