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

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Lions never addressed cornerback, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Emmanwori. They went 2 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Nick Emmanwori at pick No. 28 is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick60 Rnd2 Bradyn Swinson
Nothing to complain about; Bradyn Swinson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
