Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
Wiley should have been long gone. The Lions pounced, and earned a B+.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Lions, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend.

On value alone, Wiley makes the weekend a net positive. Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick51 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
Value with a capital V on T.J. Tampa in the 51st pick, a genuine coup. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick77 Rnd3 Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy in No. 77 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick100 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
Good price on Tykee Smith in Round 3, Pick 37, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick113 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
They jumped the gun on Sataoa Laumea, taking him earlier than his grade liked. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones in pick 131 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick173 Rnd5 Zion Tupuola-Fetui
By-the-book stuff, Zion Tupuola-Fetui at pick No. 173 squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick191 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
They did well to land Jordan Jefferson in Round 6, Pick 16, just ahead of his grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick207 Rnd6 Omar Brown
Omar Brown in pick No. 207 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick212 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A tidy little value on Christian Jones in No. 212, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick213 Rnd6 Jaylen Harrell
They paid sticker price for Jaylen Harrell in the 213th pick, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick235 Rnd7 Jared Wiley
They will replay Jared Wiley at slot 235 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
