Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Bills robbed the room for Baker. Final grade: B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Bills were there to profit. Javon Baker, the No. 90 name on the board, should have been long gone before Round 4, Pick 34. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

The Wallace pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick No. 30 they get a home-run threat at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Kamari Lassiter
Kamari Lassiter in the 60th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick93 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock in pick 93 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick128 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
A straight-up fair deal on Mohamed Kamara at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick134 Rnd4 Javon Baker
Javon Baker in the 134th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick144 Rnd5 Christian Jones
A tidy bit of business in No. 144, where Christian Jones graded well above the range. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick160 Rnd5 Sione Vaki
They took Sione Vaki at par in slot 160, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick163 Rnd5 Hunter Nourzad
Hunter Nourzad at Round 5, Pick 27 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
Nothing to complain about; Jordan Jefferson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick200 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and M.J. Devonshire at slot 200 is the proof. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick204 Rnd6 Trevin Wallace
This one needs a full-page explanation: Trevin Wallace in No. 204, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick248 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
They paid a round early for Matthew Jones in pick No. 248, more than the board wanted. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
