Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
Nobody dealt better than the Bills this weekend: B+.

The Bills spent real capital to be 65 picks early on George Holani, and the board is going to hold them to it. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.

Phillips at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

They will answer for taking cornerback early while interior defensive lineman, quarterback and other spots went begging. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick40 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
They did well to land Ladd McConkey in pick 40, just ahead of his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick60 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins at slot 60 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The roster fit checks out.
Pick100 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
A slide stopped in the 100th pick, with Calen Bullock worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick128 Rnd4 Andru Phillips
They will replay Andru Phillips at the Round 4 slot for years; that is how good the value is. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
A want over a need in the 134th overall pick: Jarvis Brownlee Jr. adds a cornerback while interior defensive lineman, quarterback and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick144 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
They took Trevor Keegan at par in pick No. 144, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick160 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
They read the board right and Tommy Eichenberg was the payoff at the 160th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick163 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
The board fumbled Jaylin Simpson all the way to slot 163, and they scooped it up. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick189 Rnd6 Delmar Glaze
Delmar Glaze in No. 189 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick200 Rnd6 Julian Pearl
A straight-up fair deal on Julian Pearl at pick 200, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick204 Rnd6 Evan Williams
They liked Evan Williams enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 204. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick248 Rnd7 George Holani
George Holani in the 248th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
