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

The Bills spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Anthony Belton, the No. 115 name on the board, in pick No. 169. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

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

Job largely done: linebacker settled and 6 of 9 of the wish list covered. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In the Round 1 slot they get a rangy last line of defense, outstanding value to boot.
Pick56 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
By-the-book stuff, Alfred Collins at Round 2, Pick 24 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick66 Rnd3 Tre Harris
They read the board right and Tre Harris was the payoff at pick 66. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick109 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
They will replay Andrew Mukuba at slot 109 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick132 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Joshua Farmer slid further than he should have, and the 132nd overall pick is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick133 Rnd4 Brashard Smith
Brashard Smith at pick No. 133 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick169 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton in the 169th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa in No. 170 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick173 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
No drama and no debate, Cobee Bryant went about where he belonged in slot 173. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick177 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
They went early on Jason Marshall Jr. in pick No. 177, and the value did not follow. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick206 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Circle this one: Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the Round 6 slot is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick226 Rnd7 Chimere Dike
Taking Chimere Dike in the 226th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
