Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills robbed the room for Majors. Final grade: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Jake Majors had no business being available in Round 5, Pick 32, and the Bills did the only sane thing and turned in the card. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

Every board in the league had Dellinger lower, and that gap is the story. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Job largely done: linebacker settled and 5 of 9 of the wish list covered.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick47 Rnd2 Matthew Golden
Matthew Golden at the 47th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in the Round 2 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick61 Rnd2 Denzel Burke
By-the-book stuff, Denzel Burke at pick 61 squarely in line with his ranking. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick78 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
Good price on Omarr Norman-Lott in Round 3, Pick 14, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick107 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
The board fumbled Andrew Mukuba all the way to No. 107, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick129 Rnd4 Carson Schwesinger
A tidy little value on Carson Schwesinger in slot 129, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at the 169th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick172 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at pick No. 172 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick175 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the 175th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick203 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
Quincy Riley at Round 6, Pick 28 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick206 Rnd6 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger at the Round 6 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
