Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB FutureB-
Larceny in No. 73 lands the Lions a B, Amegadjie and all.

The Lions spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Kiran Amegadjie, the No. 52 name on the board, in pick 73. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The Robinson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Kamari Lassiter
No edge and no loss on Kamari Lassiter in No. 29; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick61 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
They did well to land Chris Braswell in slot 61, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick73 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie in pick 73 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick107 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at Round 4, Pick 7 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick141 Rnd5 James Williams
A reasonable price with a little left over, James Williams in the 141st pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick163 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick184 Rnd6 Chau Smith-Wade
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 184, where Chau Smith-Wade graded well above the range. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick207 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
Gabe Hall at the 207th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick247 Rnd7 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in the Round 7 slot is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
