Draft Grade — Lions
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureD
The Lions got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D+.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Lions shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill.

A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want. They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
By-the-book stuff, Caleb Downs at the Round 1 slot squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
