Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Bills started one anyway for Ajou Ajou, 61 picks ahead of schedule. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The roster is better shaped than it was, with linebacker chief among the fixes.

Nothing gained and nothing lost at the table.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 D.J. James
D.J. James at No. 60 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick99 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
Marshawn Kneeland at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick128 Rnd4 James Williams
No drama and no debate, James Williams went about where he belonged in pick No. 128. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick164 Rnd5 Nathan Thomas
Nathan Thomas at the 164th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick165 Rnd5 Delmar Glaze
The board had cheaper options than Delmar Glaze at slot 165, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick197 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
A straight-up fair deal on Rasheen Ali at the 197th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee in pick 202 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick206 Rnd6 Kenny Logan Jr.
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kenny Logan Jr.. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick249 Rnd7 Ajou Ajou
A real head-scratcher, Ajou Ajou in the 249th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
