Draft Grade — Lions
Overall C-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureC+
The Lions lost the trade table, and the C- tells the story.

The Lions lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.

The Lions indulged a want in Smith while a need in safety, quarterback and other spots stayed open. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through safety.

In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson at the 29th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick61 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in pick No. 61 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick73 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk at the 73rd pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick83 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil in Round 3, Pick 19 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick92 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in No. 92 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick99 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
By-the-book stuff, Zak Zinter at slot 99 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick116 Rnd4 Maason Smith
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went DT-EDGE with Maason Smith while clear needs at safety, quarterback and other spots sat open.
Pick134 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
No drama and no debate, Mohamed Kamara went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick136 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
The board had cheaper options than Tommy Eichenberg at pick 136, and it noticed. The roster fit checks out.
