Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureD
The Lions robbed the room for McGlothern. Final grade: B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Dwight McGlothern slide, and the Lions were the ones holding the card at Round 6, Pick 43. Highway robbery. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

If Logue pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In Round 1, Pick 16 they get a press-man option on the boundary. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Keon Coleman in slot 61, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick68 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
A straight-up fair deal on Xavier Legette at pick 68, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick160 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in the Round 5 slot is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick163 Rnd5 Javion Cohen
Javion Cohen at the 163rd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick207 Rnd6 Justin Rogers
A reasonable price with a little left over, Justin Rogers in the 207th pick. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick218 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
They will replay Dwight McGlothern at No. 218 for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick247 Rnd7 Zion Logue
Value said wait; Zion Logue in pick No. 247 says they were not listening. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
