Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
The Bills fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

The Bills ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker. On value alone, Vidal makes the weekend a net positive. On the needs board they went 6 of 9, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. in pick 32 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick128 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
A tidy little value on Jarrian Jones in the 128th pick, a step better than break-even. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick134 Rnd4 James Williams
Good price on James Williams in pick No. 134, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick162 Rnd5 LaDarius Henderson
Nothing to complain about; LaDarius Henderson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick165 Rnd5 Austin Booker
Austin Booker in No. 165 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick197 Rnd6 Kimani Vidal
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kimani Vidal in Round 6, Pick 22. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick202 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
A straight-up fair deal on Gabe Hall at the 202nd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick206 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
They read the board right and De'Corian Clark was the payoff at slot 206. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick249 Rnd7 Aaron Frost
Aaron Frost at pick 249 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
