The Bills land in the muddy middle: C-. If confidence were a draft strategy, the Bills would have aced it. Ja'Had Carter at the 206th overall pick is 221 spots clear of where he belonged. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C- in the wash.
A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want. That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.
On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.
So much rides on Connor Colby that the real verdict is a season or two away.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Connor Colby
In pick No. 30 they get a blindside protector, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56
Rnd2
Donovan Ezeiruaku
Donovan Ezeiruaku at pick 56 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick62
Rnd2
Jay Toia
A wild overpay on Jay Toia in the 62nd overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick109
Rnd4
Kevin Winston Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kevin Winston Jr. at slot 109. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick132
Rnd4
R.J. Mickens
They reached into another round for R.J. Mickens, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick169
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the Round 5 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick170
Rnd5
Antwane Wells Jr.
Antwane Wells Jr. at pick 170 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick173
Rnd5
Ricky White III
They talked themselves into Ricky White III at Round 5, Pick 35, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick177
Rnd6
Sam Brown Jr.
They reached a country mile for Sam Brown Jr. at No. 177, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick206
Rnd6
Ja'Had Carter
Value said wait; Ja'Had Carter in pick No. 206 says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
