Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Bills: B.

Everything else got attention, and interior defensive lineman got none. That is a strange way for the Bills to leave a draft. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

However the rest shakes out, Worthy at that price is a win they earned. Job largely done: linebacker settled and 4 of 9 of the wish list covered.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In pick No. 18 they get juice off the edge at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick50 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Xavier Worthy at pick 50 is the proof. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick99 Rnd3 Smael Mondon Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Smael Mondon Jr. at the 99th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick118 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
A slide stopped in Round 4, Pick 18, with Jalen McMillan worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick144 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
A tidy little value on Ty'Ron Hopper in No. 144, a step better than break-even. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick155 Rnd5 Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy at slot 155 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick184 Rnd6 Javon Foster
Value with a capital V on Javon Foster in the Round 6 slot, a genuine coup. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick196 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Curtis Jacobs at the 196th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick199 Rnd6 Dominic Lovett
Dominic Lovett in pick No. 199 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
