Grand theft in slot 91: the Lions steal Rivers and grade out a B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Chandler Rivers slide, and the Lions were the ones holding the card at Round 3, Pick 27. Highway robbery.

That linebacker hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Smith has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Eric Singleton Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a true top target at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick59 Rnd2 Iapani Laloulu
Iapani Laloulu at the 59th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick91 Rnd3 Chandler Rivers
They will replay Chandler Rivers at No. 91 for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick100 Rnd3 Gabe Jacas
Gabe Jacas at the Round 3 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick127 Rnd4 Isaac Smith
They jumped the gun on Isaac Smith, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick166 Rnd5 Bryce Foster
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bryce Foster. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
