Draft Grade — Bills
Overall D+
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB+
The Bills robbed the room for James. Final grade: D+.

You build a draft on nights like this. DJ James had no business being available in pick No. 134, and the Bills did the only sane thing and turned in the card. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D+ is the result.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and safety is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Joe Alt
Joe Alt in pick No. 10 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick102 Rnd4 Javon Baker
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Javon Baker in the 102nd overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick128 Rnd4 Jermaine Burton
They robbed the room for Jermaine Burton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick134 Rnd4 DJ James
They barely believed it either: DJ James still on the board at slot 134. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick160 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt in the 160th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick163 Rnd5 Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube at No. 163 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick189 Rnd6 James Williams
You do not let a linebacker like James Williams reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick200 Rnd6 Anthony Gould
Anthony Gould at pick 200 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick204 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick235 Rnd7 Justin Rogers
Justin Rogers in slot 235 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick248 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Steele Chambers in pick 248, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
