Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Bills, and a B- to prove it.

The Bills went off the board in a big way for Aeneas Peebles, 35 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Campbell. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Shavon Revel Jr.
In slot 30 they get an island corner. More want than need.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jaylin Noel
No edge and no loss on Jaylin Noel in the 56th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
They will replay Jihaad Campbell at the 62nd pick for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick109 Rnd4 Aeneas Peebles
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Aeneas Peebles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jonas Sanker
Jonas Sanker at pick No. 132 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick169 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams at No. 169 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick170 Rnd5 Quincy Riley
A conviction pick on Quincy Riley at the 170th pick that the board grades a round light. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick173 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
A tidy little value on Seth McLaughlin in pick 173, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick177 Rnd6 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius in No. 177 is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick206 Rnd6 Fadil Diggs
Fadil Diggs at Round 6, Pick 30 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
