Draft Grade — Lions
Overall
B-
ValueB-

FutureB-
The Lions won the night they stopped Turner from sliding. Grade: B-. For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Lions walked out of the weekend still thin at cornerback, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Turner. If Bech pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. On the needs board they went 2 of 9, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick28
Rnd1
Grey Zabel
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60
Rnd2
Jack Bech
Jack Bech in No. 60 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick102
Rnd3
Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner at the 102nd pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor itch, scratched.
