Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B+
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA FutureB
The Bills cashed the board's mistake on McCormick: B+.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Mason McCormick got past him. The Bills do not have to explain a thing at the 200th overall pick. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

They will need Harrell to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Ladd McConkey
In the 30th overall pick they get a matchup problem out wide. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick74 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
They jumped the gun on Michael Hall Jr., taking him earlier than his grade liked. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick128 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in the 128th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick134 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
A premium they did not need to pay, Luke McCaffrey a notch or two before his time. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick144 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
A straight-up fair deal on Trevor Keegan at No. 144, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick160 Rnd5 Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki in slot 160 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick163 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jordan Jefferson in Round 5, Pick 27, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jaylen Harrell
A real head-scratcher, Jaylen Harrell in pick No. 165 is miles ahead of his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick187 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in the 187th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick189 Rnd6 Trente Jones
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Trente Jones. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick200 Rnd6 Mason McCormick
They barely believed it either: Mason McCormick still on the board at No. 200. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick204 Rnd6 Kendall Milton
Fair-plus on Kendall Milton, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick218 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in slot 218 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick248 Rnd7 Bub Means
Bub Means at pick No. 248 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
