Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the Round 5 slot: the Bills steal Mondon Jr. and grade out a B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Smael Mondon Jr. slide, and the Bills were the ones holding the card at slot 169. Highway robbery. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. On the needs board they went 6 of 9, with linebacker the one that mattered most.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In pick 30 they get a home-run threat at receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick56 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
They paid sticker price for Alfred Collins in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick62 Rnd2 Josaiah Stewart
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Josaiah Stewart at slot 62 is the proof. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick109 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
By-the-book stuff, Joshua Farmer at the 109th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick132 Rnd4 Denzel Burke
A cornerback of that caliber at the 132nd pick is the definition of value, full stop. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick169 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in No. 169 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick170 Rnd5 Billy Bowman Jr.
They will replay Billy Bowman Jr. at Round 5, Pick 32 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick173 Rnd5 Quincy Riley
Quincy Riley at pick No. 173 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick177 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
No edge and no loss on JJ Pegues in Round 6, Pick 1; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick206 Rnd6 Ajani Cornelius
They robbed the room for Ajani Cornelius here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
