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.
