Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Bills.

The Bills went off the board in a big way for Ethan Downs, 45 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They left with linebacker solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Trey Amos
In pick No. 30 they get an island corner, though the board says they badly overpaid. More want than need.
Pick56 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. at Round 2, Pick 24 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick62 Rnd2 Kyle Kennard
They jumped the gun on Kyle Kennard, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
They took Jordan Phillips at par in No. 109, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick132 Rnd4 Kyle Williams
They reached a country mile for Kyle Williams at pick 132, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick169 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius at the Round 5 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick173 Rnd5 Quincy Riley
No drama and no debate, Quincy Riley went about where he belonged in pick 173. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
A straight-up fair deal on Jack Kiser at the Round 5 slot, value and slot in agreement. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick177 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They paid sticker price for Dont'e Thornton Jr. in No. 177, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick206 Rnd6 R.J. Mickens
By-the-book stuff, R.J. Mickens at the 206th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick239 Rnd7 Ethan Downs
Ethan Downs in the 239th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A need, and now a little less of one.
