Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureC-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Lions for Jones: B-.

When a board-topper like Myles Jones slides to pick 253, you do not overthink it, and the Lions did not.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Kool-Aid McKinstry at slot 22 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick54 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in No. 54 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick92 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
Nice patience on Roman Wilson, who had no business lasting to pick 92. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick118 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jaden Hicks at the 118th pick is the proof. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick195 Rnd6 Julian Pearl
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Julian Pearl at the 195th overall pick. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
Pick210 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini at Round 6, Pick 35 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick226 Rnd7 Miyan Williams
A running back of that caliber at pick No. 226 is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
Pick250 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
Circle this one: Steele Chambers at the Round 7 slot is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick253 Rnd7 Myles Jones
You do not let a cornerback like Myles Jones reach the 253rd pick and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
