Draft Grade — Bills
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Bills to a D-.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Kimani Vidal at the 198th pick is 42 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. Put together, it is a D-.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

The Kinchens steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, linebacker very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick No. 28 they get a difference-maker at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick48 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell slid further than he should have, and No. 48 is lovely value for the wide receiver. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick60 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
A slide stopped in the Round 2 slot, with Kris Jenkins worth more than the price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick96 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
Marshawn Kneeland at the 96th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick99 Rnd3 Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens at slot 99 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick113 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
The board had cheaper options than Beaux Limmer at Round 4, Pick 13, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick129 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jarrian Jones. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick137 Rnd5 Javon Foster
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Javon Foster at pick 137 is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick143 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
They took Justin Eboigbe at par in the 143rd pick, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick159 Rnd5 Cornelius Johnson
A wild overpay on Cornelius Johnson in the 159th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick161 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
They left a pile of value on the table to take Joe Milton III this early at the Round 5 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick162 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
Nice patience on Tykee Smith, who had no business lasting to Round 5, Pick 26. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick198 Rnd6 Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal at pick No. 198 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
