Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Bills for Washington: B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Bills were there to profit. Malik Washington, the No. 98 name on the board, should have been long gone before Round 4, Pick 29.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. Linebacker is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the Round 1 slot they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value.
Pick60 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
A clean, defensible pick in slot 60 with a little surplus value in Ruke Orhorhoro. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick99 Rnd3 Javon Baker
Nothing to complain about; Javon Baker went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick129 Rnd4 Malik Washington
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Malik Washington in pick 129, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick159 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
They did well to land Kitan Oladapo in the 159th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick162 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
They paid sticker price for Kamal Hadden in the 162nd pick, and that is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick198 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
You do not let a linebacker like Ty'Ron Hopper reach Round 6, Pick 23 and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick202 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern at No. 202 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick206 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
They barely believed it either: M.J. Devonshire still on the board at pick 206. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick246 Rnd7 Ethan Driskell
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ethan Driskell. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
