Draft Grade — Bills
Overall D
ValueF NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Hard to find the plan in the Bills' weekend. D.

The Bills looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Jaiden Ausberry at the 88th pick regardless, 298 picks early. It grades a D, and the process earned it.

The offensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The roster is better shaped than it was, with linebacker chief among the fixes.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Patrick Payton
A wild overpay on Patrick Payton in pick No. 24, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick56 Rnd2 Johntay Cook
Johntay Cook in the 56th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jaiden Ausberry
They talked themselves into Jaiden Ausberry at slot 88, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick124 Rnd4 Robert Spears-Jennings
A real head-scratcher, Robert Spears-Jennings in Round 4, Pick 24 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick162 Rnd5 Albert Regis
A premium they did not need to pay, Albert Regis a notch or two before his time. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick220 Rnd7 Cam Calhoun
Cam Calhoun at No. 220 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick228 Rnd7 Squirrel White
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Squirrel White. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
