Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills robbed the room for Nubin. Final grade: B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Tyler Nubin slide, and the Bills were the ones holding the card at pick No. 60. Highway robbery.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Randolph Jr. reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with linebacker the one that mattered most.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell at slot 28 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick60 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
They barely believed it either: Tyler Nubin still on the board at the 60th pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick128 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Mohamed Kamara. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick134 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
A tidy little value on Beaux Limmer in Round 4, Pick 34, a step better than break-even. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jamari Thrash
The board had Jamari Thrash higher than pick 144, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick160 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick slid further than he should have, and No. 160 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick163 Rnd5 Sione Vaki
Fair-plus on Sione Vaki, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick189 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
M.J. Devonshire in pick No. 189 is fair value, right on his grade. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick200 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
They paid up for Nathaniel Watson at slot 200 when waiting would have done the job. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick204 Rnd6 Keith Randolph Jr.
A reach for Keith Randolph Jr. in the 204th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick248 Rnd7 Jalen Coker
No edge and no loss on Jalen Coker in No. 248; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
