Draft Grade — Lions
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureC
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Lions and Brownlee Jr.: D.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Lions did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Brownlee Jr. pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

The bill for those future picks comes due whether the class hits or not.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In No. 26 they get a lockdown presence outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick29 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In pick 29 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick55 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
No drama and no debate, Braden Fiske went about where he belonged in pick No. 55. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick61 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at slot 61 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
They let Jalen McMillan come to them and pounced at the 113th overall pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick130 Rnd4 Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
The board fumbled Jarvis Brownlee Jr. all the way to the 130th pick, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick164 Rnd5 Sione Vaki
A clean, defensible pick in Round 5, Pick 28 with a little surplus value in Sione Vaki. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick201 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Joe Milton III. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick205 Rnd6 Erick All
Erick All in the 205th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
