Larceny in slot 132 lands the Bills a B, Williams and all.

The Bills spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Savion Williams, the No. 90 name on the board, in pick No. 132.

A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want. Job largely done: interior defensive lineman settled and 6 of 9 of the wish list covered. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Nick Emmanwori at pick 30. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick56 Rnd2 Josaiah Stewart
Good price on Josaiah Stewart in Round 2, Pick 24, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick62 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at the 62nd pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Fair-plus on Jordan Phillips, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick132 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Savion Williams in slot 132 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick169 Rnd5 Mello Dotson
Mello Dotson at No. 169 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick170 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, O'Donnell Fortune in the Round 5 slot, plain and simple. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick173 Rnd5 Mitchell Evans
They barely believed it either: Mitchell Evans still on the board at the 173rd overall pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick177 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
They paid sticker price for JJ Pegues in slot 177, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick206 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 206th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
