Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills let Brown fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

When a board-topper like Omar Brown slides to pick 246, you do not overthink it, and the Bills did not.

The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Good work on the whole, with linebacker the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In No. 28 they get a difference-maker at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Brian Thomas Jr. in pick 62, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick99 Rnd3 DeWayne Carter
They paid sticker price for DeWayne Carter in slot 99, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick129 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Darius Robinson at pick No. 129. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick134 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
A reasonable price with a little left over, Cole Bishop in the 134th pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick159 Rnd5 Sincere Haynesworth
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Sincere Haynesworth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick162 Rnd5 McCallan Castles
McCallan Castles at Round 5, Pick 26 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jaylen Wright
No edge and no loss on Jaylen Wright in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick197 Rnd6 Roger Rosengarten
Somehow Roger Rosengarten was still sitting there in Round 6, Pick 22, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick202 Rnd6 Daijahn Anthony
Daijahn Anthony is a better player than pick 202 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick206 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark in No. 206 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick246 Rnd7 Omar Brown
Omar Brown in the 246th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
Pick248 Rnd7 Miyan Williams
Miyan Williams in the 248th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
