Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Bills, and a B- to prove it.

The Bills put a flag in the ground for Chad Lindberg, 54 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Bishop. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Job largely done: linebacker settled and 7 of 9 of the wish list covered.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Ladd McConkey
In the 28th overall pick they get a true top target. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
A tidy bit of business in pick 60, where Xavier Worthy graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick99 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
Michael Hall Jr. slipping to the Round 3 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick128 Rnd4 Audric Estime
Audric Estime in pick No. 128 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick162 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop in slot 162 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick165 Rnd5 Cedric Johnson
They did well to land Cedric Johnson in No. 165, just ahead of his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick197 Rnd6 Christian Jones
They paid sticker price for Christian Jones in the 197th overall pick, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee at pick No. 202 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick206 Rnd6 Chad Lindberg
This one needs a full-page explanation: Chad Lindberg in the 206th pick, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick249 Rnd7 Jordan Toles
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jordan Toles well ahead of where he belonged. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
