The one they had to fix is still broken. The Lions left safety untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul.
The cost of the Davis reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They went 3 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick-by-Pick
They paid sticker price for Jermod McCoy in pick No. 17, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Christen Miller in pick 50 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor itch, scratched.
No drama and no debate, Keyron Crawford went about where he belonged in No. 118. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
A premium they did not need to pay, J.C. Davis a notch or two before his time. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
