Draft Grade — Lions
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureC+
The Lions robbed the room for Thomas. Final grade: C+.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Lions, and the value they bled adds up to real damage.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped safety, which is a strange place to end up. Thomas at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The cost of the Rattler reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
A tidy little value on Adonai Mitchell in slot 36, a step better than break-even. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick62 Rnd2 Christian Haynes
No edge and no loss on Christian Haynes in pick No. 62; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick73 Rnd3 Bralen Trice
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Bralen Trice in the 73rd pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick84 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
Fair-plus on Marshawn Kneeland, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick93 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kris Abrams-Draine at Round 3, Pick 30. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick98 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
The board had Dominick Puni higher than No. 98, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick100 Rnd3 Spencer Rattler
A real head-scratcher, Spencer Rattler in the 100th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick131 Rnd4 Josh Newton
A slide stopped in slot 131, with Josh Newton worth more than the price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick249 Rnd7 Nathan Thomas
They will replay Nathan Thomas at Round 7, Pick 29 for years; that is how good the value is. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jordan Whittington
Jordan Whittington at pick No. 251 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
