Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in slot 81: the Bills steal Thomas and grade out a B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Azareye'h Thomas at pick 81 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

With quarterback unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

The cost of the Kiser reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Mike Green
In Round 1, Pick 30 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
They paid sticker price for Alfred Collins in pick No. 56, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick81 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas in the Round 3 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick109 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
A slide stopped in the 109th overall pick, with Kevin Winston Jr. worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick119 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Joshua Farmer at No. 119 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick132 Rnd4 Nohl Williams
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went cornerback with Nohl Williams while clear needs at quarterback sat open.
Pick153 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
Nothing to complain about; Pat Bryant went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick169 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
Value with a capital V on Bhayshul Tuten in the 169th pick, a genuine coup. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jake Briningstool
Jake Briningstool in No. 170 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at pick 173 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick177 Rnd6 Jonah Monheim
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jonah Monheim in pick No. 177. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick206 Rnd6 Clay Webb
Clay Webb at the 206th overall pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
