Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Lions cashed the board's mistake on Hancock: B.

The board owed the Lions one, and it paid up: Jordan Hancock, the No. 181 name on the board, sitting there at the 228th pick like a gift left on the doorstep.

They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Every board in the league had Nash lower, and that gap is the story.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Landon Jackson
In slot 28 they get a premier pass rusher. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at pick 60 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in the Round 4 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick194 Rnd6 Theo Wease Jr.
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 194 with a little surplus value in Theo Wease Jr.. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick225 Rnd7 Nick Nash
They jumped the gun on Nick Nash, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick228 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock in No. 228 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick244 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger at Round 7, Pick 28 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
