Draft Grade — Lions
Overall F
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureF
The phones sank the Lions this weekend: F.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Lions, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. A weekend to file away and forget, and an F to match.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.

Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

About as rough as a weekend gets on paper, with edge rusher still staring back at them.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In slot 12 they get a wrecking ball inside. Need was not the driver here.
Pick26 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In the 26th overall pick they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick76 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at the 76th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick122 Rnd4 Josh Newton
No drama and no debate, Josh Newton went about where he belonged in pick No. 122. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
