Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Lions: B.

Some picks age like wine; Taulia Tagovailoa at pick 205 will need to, sitting 83 spots clear of his grade.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Wallace. A whole weekend of picks and safety is somehow still a want.

They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In No. 29 they get a sticky cover corner at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick61 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
They barely believed it either: Xavier Legette still on the board at the 61st overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick73 Rnd3 Bralen Trice
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 73, where Bralen Trice graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick164 Rnd5 Erick All
Value said wait; Erick All in Round 5, Pick 28 says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick201 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Good price on Curtis Jacobs in slot 201, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The roster fit checks out.
Pick205 Rnd6 Taulia Tagovailoa
A real head-scratcher, Taulia Tagovailoa in the Round 6 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick249 Rnd7 Caedan Wallace
Taking Caedan Wallace in the 249th overall pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
