Grand theft in pick No. 175: the Bills steal Winston Jr. and grade out a B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Kevin Winston Jr. got past him. The Bills do not have to explain a thing at pick 175. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Linebacker is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick 30 they get a disruptive interior force at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Trey Amos
Trey Amos at pick No. 56 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
No drama and no debate, Jayden Higgins went about where he belonged in the 62nd overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick108 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
Somehow Andrew Mukuba was still sitting there in Round 4, Pick 7, and they pounced on premier safety value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick131 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
A tidy little value on Darius Alexander in the Round 4 slot, a step better than break-even. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick171 Rnd5 Damien Martinez
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Damien Martinez in the 171st pick, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick175 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
Taking Kevin Winston Jr. in No. 175 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick179 Rnd6 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton at slot 179 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick206 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
They read the board right and Jack Kiser was the payoff at Round 6, Pick 28. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick208 Rnd6 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson in slot 208 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
