Draft Grade — Bills
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The jury is out on the Bills. For now, C+.

Nobody else had Darien Porter anywhere near the 30th pick. The Bills did, by 46 spots, and that gap is the whole story. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C+.

However the rest shakes out, Harvey at that price is a win they earned. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with linebacker chief among the fixes. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Darien Porter
In slot 30 they get a press-man option on the boundary, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick56 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
A quiet steal in the 56th pick: Xavier Watts for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick62 Rnd2 Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor in pick 62 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick109 Rnd4 Aeneas Peebles
Aeneas Peebles in pick No. 109 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick132 Rnd4 Kobe King
A tidy little value on Kobe King in the 132nd overall pick, a step better than break-even. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick169 Rnd5 CJ West
They paid up for CJ West at No. 169 when waiting would have done the job. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick170 Rnd5 Ben Sauls
Ben Sauls in the Round 5 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
A straight-up fair deal on Jack Nelson at slot 173, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick177 Rnd6 Clay Webb
Clay Webb at the 177th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick206 Rnd6 RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey in No. 206 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
