Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills let Williams fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Bills were there to profit. Savion Williams, the No. 98 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick 171.

They will need Jackson to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker. They went 4 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In the Round 1 slot they get a potential shutdown corner at a price that makes it sweeter. Need was not the driver here.
Pick56 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
They went early on Donovan Ezeiruaku in slot 56, and the value did not follow. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick62 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at pick 62 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick108 Rnd4 Tory Horton
No edge and no loss on Tory Horton in pick No. 108; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick131 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Kevin Winston Jr. in No. 131, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick171 Rnd5 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at the 171st pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick175 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
They jumped the gun on JJ Pegues, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick179 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
A premium they did not need to pay, Jason Marshall Jr. a notch or two before his time. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick206 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
KeAndre Lambert-Smith is a better player than No. 206 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick208 Rnd6 Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson at the Round 6 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
