The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bills and Pierce: B. The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Bills watched Hollin Pierce slide 94 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.
The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. On the needs board they went 6 of 9, with linebacker the one that mattered most.
Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball. Trading back for volume was the quiet throughline of their weekend.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick30
Rnd1
Nick Emmanwori
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the back end at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick56
Rnd2
Alfred Collins
No edge and no loss on Alfred Collins in pick 56; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick66
Rnd3
Tre Harris
Tre Harris in Round 3, Pick 2 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick109
Rnd4
Azareye'h Thomas
Steal is underselling it; Azareye'h Thomas at the 109th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick132
Rnd4
Chris Paul Jr.
Taking Chris Paul Jr. in pick No. 132 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick133
Rnd4
Marcus Mbow
Circle this one: Marcus Mbow at No. 133 is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick169
Rnd5
Brashard Smith
Brashard Smith at slot 169 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick170
Rnd5
Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton in the 170th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick173
Rnd5
Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander in pick 173 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick177
Rnd6
Tory Horton
Somehow Tory Horton was still sitting there in No. 177, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick206
Rnd6
Hollin Pierce
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Hollin Pierce in the 206th pick, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick226
Rnd7
Dorian Strong
The board fumbled Dorian Strong all the way to pick No. 226, and they scooped it up. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
