Lawson should have been long gone. The Bills pounced, and earned a B+. The Bills did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Deontae Lawson fell into slot 93.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.
The cost of the Williams reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The Tykee Smith deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick28
Rnd1
Nic Scourton
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick29
Rnd1
James Pearce Jr.
They took James Pearce Jr. at par in the 29th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick57
Rnd2
Emery Jones Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Emery Jones Jr. at the Round 2 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick63
Rnd2
Domani Jackson
They jumped the gun on Domani Jackson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick93
Rnd3
Deontae Lawson
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Deontae Lawson in slot 93, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick173
Rnd5
Gentry Williams
Gentry Williams in the 173rd overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick179
Rnd6
Garrett Dellinger
A reach on Garrett Dellinger in pick 179; the board had better options right there. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick240
Rnd7
Jimmy Horn Jr.
Jimmy Horn Jr. in No. 240 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
