Draft Grade — Bills
Overall C+
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesD+ FutureD+
Grand theft in Round 1, Pick 30: the Bills steal Starks and grade out a C+.

Everything else got attention, and offensive lineman got none. That is a strange way for the Bills to leave a draft.

The Starks pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They will need Prather to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

It grades out a shrug today, with plenty of room to move either way.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In pick No. 30 they get a centerfielder for the defense at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick31 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In pick 31 they get an island corner, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick32 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In slot 32 they get a three-down second-level presence, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62 Rnd2 Deone Walker
A straight-up fair deal on Deone Walker at No. 62, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick242 Rnd7 Kaden Prather
Kaden Prather in the Round 7 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
