Draft Grade — Lions
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesA+ FutureD
The Lions won the night they stopped James from sliding. Grade: B.

The Lions ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The James value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The Van Pran pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Jared Verse
Jared Verse at the Round 1 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick29 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In slot 29 they get an island corner at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
A conviction pick on Sedrick Van Pran at Round 2, Pick 30 that the board grades a round light. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick93 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
They took Christian Mahogany at par in No. 93, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick109 Rnd4 DJ James
Taking DJ James in pick No. 109 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick163 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Nothing to complain about; Kitan Oladapo went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick207 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
The board fumbled Cornelius Johnson all the way to the 207th pick, and they scooped it up. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick248 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
The board had Brevyn Spann-Ford higher than Round 7, Pick 28, and the tight end fell to them anyway. The roster fit checks out.
