Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureB
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Lions: B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Tyler Batty at No. 222, a reach of 84 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

However the rest shakes out, Tuten at that price is a win they earned. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick44 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
They barely believed it either: Kenneth Grant still on the board at the Round 2 slot. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick63 Rnd2 Elic Ayomanor
This one needs a full-page explanation: Elic Ayomanor in the 63rd overall pick, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick129 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
You do not let a linebacker like Barrett Carter reach pick No. 129 and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick194 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
No edge and no loss on Jordan Hancock in slot 194; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick222 Rnd7 Tyler Batty
They talked themselves into Tyler Batty at Round 7, Pick 6, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick229 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
A running back of that caliber at pick 229 is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Steal is underselling it; Jamon Dumas-Johnson at slot 247 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
