Draft Grade — Lions
Overall

Good, not great, for the Lions: B. The Lions' one glaring miss is offensive lineman, a need they left exactly as they found it. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
The Schwesinger pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but offensive lineman.
Pick Analysis
Pick28
Rnd1
Jack Sawyer
In the 28th pick they get a premier pass rusher. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60
Rnd2
Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at the Round 2 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick101
Rnd3
Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger slipping to the 101st overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
