Draft Grade — Lions
Overall
D+
ValueB-
NeedA-
TradesF
FutureD-
The Lions bled value on every deal, hence the D+. Somebody took the Lions to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. The math is unkind, and the D+ follows.
The Travis pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.
Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.
A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Terrion Arnold
In the 27th overall pick they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick32
Rnd1
Quinyon Mitchell
In pick 32 they get a sticky cover corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick49
Rnd2
Zach Frazier
A reach on Zach Frazier in slot 49; the board had better options right there. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick92
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
They did well to land Michael Hall Jr. in Round 3, Pick 29, just ahead of his grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick108
Rnd4
Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis in the 108th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick247
Rnd7
Andre Sam
A straight-up fair deal on Andre Sam at No. 247, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
