Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA FutureB
Larceny in slot 164 lands the Bills a B, Pritchett and all.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Nehemiah Pritchett got past him. The Bills do not have to explain a thing at the 164th pick. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Hall pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same. Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the 29th pick they get a lockdown presence outside. More want than need.
Pick60 Rnd2 Ricky Pearsall
They took Ricky Pearsall at par in pick No. 60, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick128 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
Nothing to complain about; McKinnley Jackson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams at No. 134 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick144 Rnd5 Isaiah Adams
A clean, defensible pick in Round 5, Pick 8 with a little surplus value in Isaiah Adams. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick160 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at pick 160 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick163 Rnd5 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau in the 163rd overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick164 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett in the Round 5 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick189 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini at Round 6, Pick 14 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick200 Rnd6 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at the Round 6 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick204 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
They went early on Gabe Hall in slot 204, and the value did not follow. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick248 Rnd7 Bub Means
Bub Means in the 248th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
