Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
Jones should have been long gone. The Bills pounced, and earned a B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Christian Jones slide, and the Bills were the ones holding the card at the 246th overall pick. Highway robbery. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Jefferson has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick37 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell in the 37th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick60 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Nothing to complain about; Kingsley Suamataia went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick69 Rnd3 Edgerrin Cooper
A quiet steal in slot 69: Edgerrin Cooper for less than the market said. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick102 Rnd4 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson in the 102nd pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick106 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara at pick No. 106 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick129 Rnd4 James Williams
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on James Williams. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
They liked Jordan Jefferson enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 5, Pick 29. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick197 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark in pick 197 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jaylen Harrell
Jaylen Harrell at slot 202 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick206 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
They paid sticker price for Gabe Hall in the 206th pick, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick246 Rnd7 Christian Jones
Taking Christian Jones in Round 7, Pick 26 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
