Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills kept it disciplined and banked a B.

The Bills bet big and early on Eric O'Neill, 43 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

Reese at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In pick 26 they get a green-dot type in the middle, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick91 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
Zakee Wheatley in the Round 3 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick126 Rnd4 CJ Daniels
A reach on CJ Daniels in Round 4, Pick 26; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick165 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
A tidy little value on Aaron Graves in the 165th overall pick, a step better than break-even. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick168 Rnd5 Keagen Trost
They paid up for Keagen Trost at No. 168 when waiting would have done the job. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick220 Rnd7 Eric O'Neill
Eric O'Neill at slot 220 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick228 Rnd7 Trebor Pena
Trebor Pena at the Round 7 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
