Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Horton should have been long gone. The Bills pounced, and earned a B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Tory Horton slide, and the Bills were the ones holding the card at pick 169. Highway robbery. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They are betting Dumas-Johnson proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In the 30th overall pick they get a two-high chess piece, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A tidy bit of business in Round 2, Pick 24, where Jihaad Campbell graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick62 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
They paid a round early for Maxwell Hairston in pick No. 62, more than the board wanted. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Fair-plus on Jordan Phillips, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick132 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
The board fumbled Kevin Winston Jr. all the way to the Round 4 slot, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tory Horton
Tory Horton in the 169th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick170 Rnd5 Ty Robinson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Ty Robinson at No. 170 is the proof. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish in slot 173 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick177 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick206 Rnd6 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jamon Dumas-Johnson in pick No. 206, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
