Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills won the night they stopped Majors from sliding. Grade: B.

The Bills did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Jake Majors fell into pick 169. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The Campbell reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In pick 29 they get a ballhawk on the back end at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Steal is underselling it; Jihaad Campbell at Round 2, Pick 29 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick62 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Tyleik Williams in slot 62. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick108 Rnd4 Tory Horton
They did well to land Tory Horton in the Round 4 slot, just ahead of his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick130 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. in the 130th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in the 169th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick172 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
A wild overpay on DJ Campbell in No. 172, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick176 Rnd6 Chris Paul Jr.
Chris Paul Jr. at pick No. 176 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick204 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
You do not let a running back like Cam Skattebo reach the 204th overall pick and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick206 Rnd6 Kaden Prather
A big swing on Kaden Prather at pick No. 206, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
