Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA FutureB
Grand theft in slot 127: the Bills steal Estime and grade out a B+.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Audric Estime got past him. The Bills do not have to explain a thing at slot 127.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick34 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
They took Tyler Nubin at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick60 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
They will replay Keon Coleman at No. 60 for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick105 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Zak Zinter. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick127 Rnd4 Audric Estime
Taking Audric Estime in pick No. 127 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick133 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
A reasonable price with a little left over, Cedric Gray in Round 4, Pick 33. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jacob Cowing
No edge and no loss on Jacob Cowing in the 143rd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick159 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Circle this one: Jaylin Simpson at pick 159 is a fall that decides a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick162 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha is a better player than slot 162 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick179 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
A straight-up fair deal on Jordan Jefferson at No. 179, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick181 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
No drama and no debate, Cornelius Johnson went about where he belonged in pick 181. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick188 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
The board had Caedan Wallace higher than the 188th pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick199 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
They paid sticker price for Curtis Jacobs in the 199th overall pick, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick203 Rnd6 Justin Rogers
Justin Rogers at pick No. 203 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick231 Rnd7 Austin Reed
By-the-book stuff, Austin Reed at the Round 7 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick248 Rnd7 Evan Williams
Evan Williams in Round 7, Pick 28 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
