Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
The Bills let McGlothern fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Dwight McGlothern got past him. The Bills do not have to explain a thing at No. 202. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

That linebacker hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The cost of the Hunt reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 5 of 9 of the wish list covered. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In slot 28 they get a cornerstone up front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
They took Javon Bullard at par in No. 60, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick99 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in the Round 3 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick129 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
They let McKinnley Jackson come to them and pounced at the 129th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick162 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt at pick No. 162 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A pick in search of a role on this roster.
Pick198 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington at Round 6, Pick 23 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick202 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
They barely believed it either: Dwight McGlothern still on the board at pick 202. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick206 Rnd6 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at the 206th overall pick is the proof. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick210 Rnd6 Kendall Milton
Kendall Milton in No. 210 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick246 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
The board fumbled Garret Greenfield all the way to pick No. 246, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
