Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
Larceny in Round 7, Pick 28 lands the Bills a B, Harden and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Myles Harden tumbling to the Bills in slot 248 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Spending an early pick on OLB-EDGE with linebacker, interior defensive lineman and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

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

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
By-the-book stuff, Adonai Mitchell at pick 31 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick60 Rnd2 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in the Round 2 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick94 Rnd3 Javon Baker
Somehow Javon Baker was still sitting there in Round 3, Pick 31, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick128 Rnd4 Javon Solomon
A surprising call. With linebacker, interior defensive lineman and other spots still to address, they spent slot 128 on Javon Solomon, an OLB-EDGE they were not short of.
Pick144 Rnd5 Brandon Coleman
Brandon Coleman at pick No. 144 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick160 Rnd5 Xavier Thomas
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Xavier Thomas at No. 160 is the proof. The roster fit checks out.
Pick248 Rnd7 Myles Harden
They robbed the room for Myles Harden here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
