Draft Grade — Bills
Overall C-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesD- FutureD
Henderson should have been long gone. The Bills pounced, and earned a C-.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Bills shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill. It washes out to a C-, no better and no worse.

That Henderson pick is the receipt they will wave around later. A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want. Thornton Jr. has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Shemar Stewart
In pick 8 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
They paid sticker price for Azareye'h Thomas in No. 56, and that is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick74 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at Round 3, Pick 10 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick109 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
No drama and no debate, Joshua Farmer went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick169 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They went early on Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 169th overall pick, and the value did not follow. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick177 Rnd6 James Burnip
They read the board right and James Burnip was the payoff at the 177th pick. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
