Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Lions did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Lions clearly saw something nobody else did in Donte Kent, taking him 61 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped safety, which is a strange place to end up. On the needs board they went 4 of 9, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Good work on the whole, with safety the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jonah Elliss
In slot 30 they get a bendy edge with upside, though they paid up to get him. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick50 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in Round 2, Pick 18 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick84 Rnd3 Nazir Stackhouse
A straight-up fair deal on Nazir Stackhouse at the 84th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick93 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Roman Wilson. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick130 Rnd4 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil in pick 130 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick167 Rnd5 Bryce Foster
They liked Bryce Foster enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 167. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick208 Rnd6 Donte Kent
They left a pile of value on the table to take Donte Kent this early at the 208th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick251 Rnd7 Turner Corcoran
A wild overpay on Turner Corcoran in Round 7, Pick 31, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
