Simon should have been long gone. The Bills pounced, and earned a B. The Bills did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Cody Simon fell into the 204th pick.
They will need Wease Jr. to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They punted on offensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Kenneth Grant
In the Round 1 slot they get a run-stuffing presence up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick61
Rnd2
Jalen Royals
No drama and no debate, Jalen Royals went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 29. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick62
Rnd2
Trey Amos
Trey Amos in the 62nd pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick108
Rnd4
Andrew Mukuba
Somehow Andrew Mukuba was still sitting there in pick 108, and they pounced on premier safety value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick130
Rnd4
Deontae Lawson
They barely believed it either: Deontae Lawson still on the board at the 130th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick133
Rnd4
Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles in pick No. 133 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick165
Rnd5
Theo Wease Jr.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Theo Wease Jr. in No. 165, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick169
Rnd5
JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues in slot 169 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick172
Rnd5
Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton at the 172nd pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
Pick176
Rnd6
Oronde Gadsden II
They will replay Oronde Gadsden II at slot 176 for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick204
Rnd6
Cody Simon
Cody Simon in the 204th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick207
Rnd6
Xavier Nwankpa
Nice patience on Xavier Nwankpa, who had no business lasting to Round 6, Pick 32. A need, and now a little less of one.
