Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills let Emmanwori fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Nick Emmanwori got past him. The Bills do not have to explain a thing at slot 62. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

For all the activity, linebacker went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Thornton Jr. pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Tyleik Williams
In pick No. 30 they get a load in the middle, though they paid up to get him. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick56 Rnd2 Trey Amos
A tidy little value on Trey Amos in slot 56, a step better than break-even. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick62 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at Round 2, Pick 30 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips at the 109th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick132 Rnd4 Chimere Dike
Chimere Dike at pick 132 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
A tidy bit of business in the 169th overall pick, where Tommi Hill graded well above the range. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick170 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
The board had cheaper options than Dont'e Thornton Jr. at No. 170, and it noticed. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick173 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin in the Round 5 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick177 Rnd6 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders at the Round 6 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick206 Rnd6 Connor Colby
The board fumbled Connor Colby all the way to pick 206, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
