Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the Round 6 slot lands the Bills a B, Hadden and all.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Kamal Hadden, the No. 167 name on the board, stolen at the 202nd pick. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

They will regret leaving safety for another day if the season turns on it. They went 5 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the 28th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
The board fumbled Ladd McConkey all the way to the 60th pick, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick99 Rnd3 Blake Corum
A slide stopped in the Round 3 slot, with Blake Corum worth more than the price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick129 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson in pick No. 129 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick159 Rnd5 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at Round 5, Pick 23 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick162 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten in slot 162 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick198 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
Good price on Tahj Washington in No. 198, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick202 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden in pick 202 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick206 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
A premium they did not need to pay, Gabe Hall a notch or two before his time. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick246 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace is a better player than the 246th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
