Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Lions: B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Lions took Que Robinson at the Round 4 slot, roughly 114 spots before his name belonged.

The Greene III steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In No. 28 they get a press-man option on the boundary, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 Chris Paul Jr.
They reached a country mile for Chris Paul Jr. at slot 60, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick101 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
Circle this one: Jalen Royals at pick 101 is a fall that decides a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick133 Rnd4 Que Robinson
A real head-scratcher, Que Robinson in the Round 4 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick198 Rnd6 Earnest Greene III
Taking Earnest Greene III in the 198th overall pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick227 Rnd7 Cooper Mays
This one needs a full-page explanation: Cooper Mays in pick No. 227, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick230 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
They let Cam Jackson come to them and pounced at pick 230. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick246 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
They reached into another round for Thor Griffith, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
