Draft Grade — Bills
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureD
The Bills bled value on every deal, hence the D.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Bills spent the 146th overall pick on Barryn Sorrell, a name the board had a full 146 spots lower. It grades a D, and the process earned it.

The Paul Jr. steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

The bill for those future picks comes due whether the class hits or not.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In the 30th overall pick they get a downhill hitter at safety, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant in slot 33 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick54 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
Donovan Ezeiruaku at No. 54 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick56 Rnd2 Trey Amos
Trey Amos in the Round 2 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick62 Rnd2 Deone Walker
No edge and no loss on Deone Walker in pick 62; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jalon Walker
Circle this one: Jalon Walker at Round 3, Pick 3 is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick107 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
Nice patience on Tez Johnson, who had no business lasting to the 107th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick122 Rnd4 Jaylin Noel
A real head-scratcher, Jaylin Noel in pick No. 122 is miles ahead of his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick130 Rnd4 Shemar Turner
They left a pile of value on the table to take Shemar Turner this early at Round 4, Pick 29. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick146 Rnd5 Barryn Sorrell
A big swing on Barryn Sorrell at pick 146, well ahead of any board in the building. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick148 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at slot 148 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick169 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
They went early on Cobee Bryant in No. 169, and the value did not follow. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick172 Rnd5 Kalel Mullings
Kalel Mullings in the 172nd overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
Pick175 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
They talked themselves into Anthony Belton at the Round 5 slot, and the board did not agree. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick202 Rnd6 Phillip Webb
Phillip Webb at pick 202 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick203 Rnd6 Chris Paul Jr.
They will replay Chris Paul Jr. at the 203rd pick for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick204 Rnd6 Hunter Wohler
Value said wait; Hunter Wohler in the Round 6 slot says they were not listening. It fills a real need, too.
Pick236 Rnd7 Luke Elzinga
Luke Elzinga in the 236th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick247 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson at Round 7, Pick 31 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
