Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Lions.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Lions left safety untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul.

Braswell falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
A straight-up fair deal on Ruke Orhorhoro at Round 2, Pick 30, value and slot in agreement. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick84 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell at slot 84 is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick93 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes in No. 93 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
