The rest of the league will want that one back. Jake Golday tumbling to the Bills in pick 91 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

A whole weekend of picks and offensive lineman is somehow still a want. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.15 · Pick 47 · CJ Allen · LB · rank 31
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing CJ Allen in the Round 2 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.27 · Pick 91 · Jake Golday · OLB · rank 58
The board fumbled Jake Golday all the way to the 91st overall pick, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R4.26 · Pick 126 · Ja'Kobi Lane · WR · rank 94
Ja'Kobi Lane in pick 126 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.25 · Pick 165 · Louis Moore · S · rank 159
Louis Moore at pick No. 165 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. The roster fit checks out.
R5.28 · Pick 168 · Reggie Virgil · WR · rank 161
Good price on Reggie Virgil in slot 168, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R7.4 · Pick 220 · Thaddeus Dixon · CB · rank 211
A slide stopped in the 220th pick, with Thaddeus Dixon worth more than the price. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
