Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Bills, and a B to prove it.

The Bills treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending slot 228 on Kamran James a full 123 spots early.

The Lew steal is the beam this whole class leans on. For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. On the needs board they went 5 of 9, with linebacker the one that mattered most.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In pick No. 26 they get a green-dot type in the middle at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Omar Cooper Jr.
Omar Cooper Jr. at Round 2, Pick 28 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick91 Rnd3 Connor Lew
Circle this one: Connor Lew at No. 91 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jakobe Thomas
By-the-book stuff, Jakobe Thomas at slot 126 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick166 Rnd5 Nadame Tucker
They paid sticker price for Nadame Tucker in the Round 5 slot, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick220 Rnd7 Keyshaun Elliott
Keyshaun Elliott at pick 220 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick228 Rnd7 Kamran James
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kamran James well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
