Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Lions and Harden: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Myles Harden, the No. 209 name on the board, stolen at No. 252. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The Okie-Anoma pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Leaving safety unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Zach Frazier
Zach Frazier at the Round 1 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick61 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Edgerrin Cooper at pick No. 61 is the proof. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick73 Rnd3 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins at the 73rd pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick95 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
They let Khyree Jackson come to them and pounced at No. 95. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick132 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
They paid a round early for Ainias Smith in slot 132, more than the board wanted. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick164 Rnd5 AJ Barner
They jumped the gun on AJ Barner, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick201 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
They went early on Garret Greenfield in the 201st overall pick, and the value did not follow. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick205 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
Nice patience on Jase McClellan, who had no business lasting to Round 6, Pick 30. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick249 Rnd7 Eyabi Okie-Anoma
Eyabi Okie-Anoma at No. 249 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick252 Rnd7 Myles Harden
Myles Harden in Round 7, Pick 32 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
