The Lions robbed the room for Judkins. Final grade: A-. The Lions did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Quinshon Judkins fell into the 194th pick.
Every board in the league had Slackman lower, and that gap is the story. The phones were where this weekend was really won.
For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain.
It is a haul that will look even better come September.
Pick Analysis
Pick44
Rnd2
Emeka Egbuka
A tidy bit of business in the 44th overall pick, where Emeka Egbuka graded well above the range. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick63
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in Round 2, Pick 31 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick76
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
Good price on Andrew Mukuba in No. 76, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick131
Rnd4
Danny Stutsman
Somehow Danny Stutsman was still sitting there in the 131st pick, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick160
Rnd5
Jake Majors
Taking Jake Majors in slot 160 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick194
Rnd6
Quinshon Judkins
They will replay Quinshon Judkins at pick 194 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick225
Rnd7
Jonah Monheim
They barely believed it either: Jonah Monheim still on the board at pick No. 225. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick228
Rnd7
Joey Slackman
They left a pile of value on the table to take Joey Slackman this early at the Round 7 slot. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick244
Rnd7
Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes in pick No. 244 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
