Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bills and Rice: B-.

The Bills did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Brenden Rice fell into the Round 4 slot. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Reaching for Barrett left real value on the table behind him.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In pick 28 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick60 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske in the Round 2 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick99 Rnd3 Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan in No. 99 is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick129 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Steal is underselling it; Brenden Rice at Round 4, Pick 29 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick159 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tommy Eichenberg at the 159th pick is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick162 Rnd5 Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki at slot 162 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick198 Rnd6 Jha'Quan Jackson
Jha'Quan Jackson in pick No. 198 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
Jared Wiley at the 202nd overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick206 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
They jumped the gun on Michael Barrett, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick246 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
They took LaDarius Henderson at par in pick No. 246, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
