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

The Bills did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Taylen Green fell into No. 228. The bottom line is a respectable B.

A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want. The Rivers pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

On the needs board they went 4 of 9, with wide receiver the one that mattered most. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Value with a capital V on Dillon Thieneman in No. 60, a genuine coup. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Chris Johnson
A cornerback of that caliber at pick No. 91 is the definition of value, full stop. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick126 Rnd4 Eric Rivers
They paid a round early for Eric Rivers in the 126th overall pick, more than the board wanted. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick167 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
They will replay Domani Jackson at pick 167 for years; that is how good the value is. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick220 Rnd7 Brett Norfleet
No edge and no loss on Brett Norfleet in Round 7, Pick 4; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick228 Rnd7 Taylen Green
Somehow Taylen Green was still sitting there in the 228th pick, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. It fills a real need, too.
