Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC+
The Bills won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+.

The Bills went off the board in a big way for Dominic Zvada, 36 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Wheatley falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick54 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
They read the board right and Sonny Styles was the payoff at the 54th pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick88 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Zakee Wheatley at slot 88. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick123 Rnd4 Jude Bowry
They paid a round early for Jude Bowry in pick 123, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick161 Rnd5 Kevin Coleman Jr.
Kevin Coleman Jr. at pick No. 161 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick221 Rnd7 James Smith
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on James Smith. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick230 Rnd7 Dominic Zvada
A big swing on Dominic Zvada at No. 230, well ahead of any board in the building. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
