Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Lions: B.

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named quarterback, a need the Lions walked right past. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

Johnson at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In the 29th overall pick they get an island corner at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
Adisa Isaac at pick 61 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick73 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul in No. 73 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick164 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Nice patience on Kitan Oladapo, who had no business lasting to pick No. 164. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick201 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson is a better player than the 201st pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick205 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Fair-plus on Curtis Jacobs, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick249 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
Brevyn Spann-Ford in slot 249 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
