Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The war room fell hard for Phillip Webb, and it showed at the Round 6 slot: 132 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

On value alone, Hill makes the weekend a net positive. Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 6 of 9 of the wish list covered. The back end got a real overhaul.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In pick 30 they get a rangy last line of defense. A real need, handled.
Pick56 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
They let Xavier Watts come to them and pounced at No. 56. The roster fit checks out.
Pick62 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at pick No. 62 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick108 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
Steal is underselling it; Tez Johnson at the 108th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick131 Rnd4 Kalel Mullings
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kalel Mullings in the Round 4 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick171 Rnd5 Earnest Greene III
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Earnest Greene III at the 171st overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick175 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
Tommi Hill in Round 5, Pick 36 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick179 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
They took Cobee Bryant at par in pick 179, which is nothing to complain about. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick206 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed in No. 206 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick208 Rnd6 Phillip Webb
They left a pile of value on the table to take Phillip Webb this early at pick No. 208. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
