Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills let King fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

When a board-topper like Kobe King slides to pick 179, you do not overthink it, and the Bills did not. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

Roberts has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The offensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The roster is better shaped than it was, with linebacker chief among the fixes.

They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In the Round 1 slot they get a difference-maker at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Benjamin Morrison
The board had Benjamin Morrison higher than No. 56, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick62 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
A tidy bit of business in Round 2, Pick 30, where Xavier Watts graded well above the range. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick108 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Darius Alexander. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick131 Rnd4 Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts at the 131st pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick171 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
They robbed the room for Tommi Hill here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick175 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick No. 175 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick179 Rnd6 Kobe King
The board fumbled Kobe King all the way to slot 179, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick206 Rnd6 Donovan Edwards
Circle this one: Donovan Edwards at pick 206 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick208 Rnd6 Cam Jackson
A reach on Cam Jackson in slot 208; the board had better options right there. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
