Draft Grade — Bills
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureC
Smith-Wade should have been long gone. The Bills pounced, and earned a D-.

Somebody took the Bills to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D-.

If Boyd pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain. That Smith-Wade pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

They went 5 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the Round 1 slot they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They paid sticker price for T'Vondre Sweat in No. 60, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick128 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones in the 128th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick144 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Fair-plus on Christian Jones, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick160 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick is a better player than pick No. 160 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick163 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
A real head-scratcher, Khristian Boyd in slot 163 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick200 Rnd6 Chau Smith-Wade
Chau Smith-Wade in slot 200 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick204 Rnd6 Nathaniel Watson
No drama and no debate, Nathaniel Watson went about where he belonged in pick No. 204. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
