Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedA- TradesC FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Lions: B-.

The Lions put a flag in the ground for Johnny Wilson, 52 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Mitchell. That linebacker hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick61 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell at No. 61 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick62 Rnd2 Zach Frazier
A straight-up fair deal on Zach Frazier at the Round 2 slot, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick70 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
They paid up for Marshawn Kneeland at Round 3, Pick 6 when waiting would have done the job. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick73 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Johnny Wilson this early at the 73rd overall pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick141 Rnd5 Sione Vaki
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Sione Vaki. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick164 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
The board fumbled Trevor Keegan all the way to slot 164, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
