jstew08 DRAFTING FOR THELions
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Lions
Overall

FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Lions, and a B to prove it. The Lions put a flag in the ground for Jalen Coker, 47 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. That Cooper pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.
The back end got a real overhaul.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 29th overall pick they get a sticky cover corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick61
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Edgerrin Cooper at slot 61. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick73
Rnd3
Kiran Amegadjie
They read the board right and Kiran Amegadjie was the payoff at the 73rd pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick164
Rnd5
Jalen Coker
Jalen Coker at the Round 5 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick201
Rnd6
Kalen King
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kalen King in No. 201. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick205
Rnd6
Josh Proctor
Nothing to complain about; Josh Proctor went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick249
Rnd7
Trente Jones
Trente Jones in pick No. 249 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
