Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B

Larceny in the Round 6 slot lands the Bills a B, Belton and all.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Anthony Belton, Round 6, Pick 1, roughly 67 picks past where he belonged. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

If Carter pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

Linebacker is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
A reasonable price with a little left over, Emeka Egbuka in slot 30. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick56 Rnd2 Barrett Carter
They reached a country mile for Barrett Carter at pick 56, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Harold Fannin Jr. at Round 2, Pick 30 is the proof. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick109 Rnd4 Deone Walker
Somehow Deone Walker was still sitting there in the 109th overall pick, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick132 Rnd4 Devin Neal
You do not let a running back like Devin Neal reach the Round 4 slot and blink. They did not. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick169 Rnd5 Riley Leonard
Riley Leonard at No. 169 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jonas Sanker
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Jonas Sanker in the 170th pick, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick173 Rnd5 Connor Colby
A reach on Connor Colby in pick No. 173; the board had better options right there. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick177 Rnd6 Anthony Belton
They barely believed it either: Anthony Belton still on the board at the 177th overall pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick206 Rnd6 Alijah Huzzie
Alijah Huzzie in slot 206 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
