Draft Grade — Lions

Moore should have been long gone. The Lions pounced, and earned a B. The board owed the Lions one, and it paid up: Rod Moore, the No. 69 name on the board, sitting there at Round 3, Pick 30 like a gift left on the doorstep.
They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The cost of the Ogunbiyi reach is exactly the players who went right after him.
Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 30th pick they get a lockdown presence outside, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62
Rnd2
Kris Jenkins
A tidy bit of business in the 62nd overall pick, where Kris Jenkins graded well above the range. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick73
Rnd3
Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick93
Rnd3
Rod Moore
Rod Moore at pick No. 93 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick167
Rnd5
Aki Ogunbiyi
Aki Ogunbiyi at No. 167 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick208
Rnd6
Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten slipping to slot 208 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick251
Rnd7
Edefuan Ulofoshio
A reasonable price with a little left over, Edefuan Ulofoshio in Round 7, Pick 31. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
