Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA- FutureC-
Larceny in slot 228 lands the Lions a B, Skattebo and all.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Cam Skattebo, the Round 7 slot, roughly 123 picks past where he belonged. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

Reaching for Williams left real value on the table behind him. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

The trade work was a quiet net positive. It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
They took Tyler Booker at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
They robbed the room for Jihaad Campbell here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick70 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Elic Ayomanor at pick 70 is the proof. The roster fit checks out.
Pick90 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
They barely believed it either: Andrew Mukuba still on the board at the 90th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick125 Rnd4 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo in No. 125 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick131 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Darius Alexander. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick194 Rnd6 Nohl Williams
This one needs a full-page explanation: Nohl Williams in pick No. 194, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick225 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin in slot 225 is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick228 Rnd7 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at slot 228 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick244 Rnd7 Jimmy Horn Jr.
Jimmy Horn Jr. in No. 244 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
