Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureB
A solid, sensible weekend for the Bills: B.

The Josh Proctor pick is the one that will follow the Bills into the fall. They took him 44 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

That is a running back worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick41 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Adonai Mitchell in No. 41. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick60 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Nothing to complain about; Xavier Worthy went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick128 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams in the 128th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134 Rnd4 Josh Newton
Nice patience on Josh Newton, who had no business lasting to the 134th overall pick. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick139 Rnd5 Sataoa Laumea
A slide stopped in Round 5, Pick 3, with Sataoa Laumea worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
A premium they did not need to pay, Jalyx Hunt a notch or two before his time. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick160 Rnd5 Sione Vaki
No edge and no loss on Sione Vaki in slot 160; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick163 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
They did well to land Tykee Smith in the Round 5 slot, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson at pick No. 189 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick200 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
They talked themselves into Josh Proctor at Round 6, Pick 25, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick204 Rnd6 Trente Jones
Trente Jones is a better player than No. 204 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick247 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Frank Gore Jr. at the 247th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick248 Rnd7 Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight at the 248th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
