Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Lions did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Lions looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Barryn Sorrell at No. 230 regardless, 84 picks early.

Johnson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Shavon Revel Jr.
In the 28th pick they get an island corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Jordan Burch
Jordan Burch in No. 60 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick101 Rnd3 Jake Majors
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jake Majors. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick133 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick No. 133 is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
Pick198 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
Joshua Gray at the 198th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick227 Rnd7 Craig Woodson
Steal is underselling it; Craig Woodson at Round 7, Pick 9 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick230 Rnd7 Barryn Sorrell
Value said wait; Barryn Sorrell in pick No. 230 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick246 Rnd7 Amari Kight
Amari Kight in Round 7, Pick 28 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
