Draft Grade — Bills
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Bills to a C+.

The Bills looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Shaun Dolac at slot 247 regardless, 90 picks early. For now it grades a C+, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.

The Emmanwori pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The Bills indulged a want in Parrish while a need in offensive lineman, quarterback and other spots stayed open.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped offensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Will Johnson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Will Johnson in No. 30. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick56 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A safety of that caliber at slot 56 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick62 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
A slide stopped in pick 62, with TreVeyon Henderson worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick76 Rnd3 Kyle Kennard
By-the-book stuff, Kyle Kennard at Round 3, Pick 12 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
They paid sticker price for Jordan Phillips in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the 132nd overall pick on Jacob Parrish with offensive lineman, quarterback and other spots unsolved.
Pick169 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They jumped the gun on Dont'e Thornton Jr., taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick204 Rnd6 Nazir Stackhouse
A conviction pick on Nazir Stackhouse at No. 204 that the board grades a round light. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick206 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
Fair-plus on KeAndre Lambert-Smith, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick247 Rnd7 Shaun Dolac
Shaun Dolac at the 247th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
