Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Bills, and a B to prove it.

The Bills' one glaring miss is interior defensive lineman, a need they left exactly as they found it.

On value alone, Thieneman makes the weekend a net positive. Reaching for Cottrell left real value on the table behind him.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Denzel Boston
In the 24th overall pick they get a matchup problem out wide. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
A quiet steal in Round 2, Pick 28: Dillon Thieneman for less than the market said. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Taurean York
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Taurean York at No. 91. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick126 Rnd4 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
Ar'maj Reed-Adams in the Round 4 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick220 Rnd7 Jacobe Johnson
They liked Jacobe Johnson enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 220. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick228 Rnd7 Raymond Cottrell
Raymond Cottrell at pick No. 228 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
