Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills won the night they stopped Moore Jr. from sliding. Grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: DeAndre Moore Jr., Round 4, Pick 30, roughly 64 picks past where he belonged. The bottom line is a respectable B.

They are betting Ferguson proves the room right and everyone else wrong. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Deontae Lawson
In No. 32 they get a green-dot type in the middle at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick64 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
You do not let a safety like Dillon Thieneman reach the 64th overall pick and blink. They did not. It fills a real need, too.
Pick96 Rnd3 Kenyon Sadiq
Kenyon Sadiq at the 96th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick132 Rnd4 DeAndre Moore Jr.
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick No. 132 is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick171 Rnd5 Trey Zuhn III
They took Trey Zuhn III at par in slot 171, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick217 Rnd7 Jeremiah Cobb
They jumped the gun on Jeremiah Cobb, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick222 Rnd7 J.C. Davis
A slide stopped in pick 222, with J.C. Davis worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick245 Rnd7 TJ Ferguson
Value said wait; TJ Ferguson in Round 7, Pick 29 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
