Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The tape said wait; the Bills did not. Shaun Dolac went at the 173rd overall pick, a good 150 picks before the board was ready.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Williams. The Hairston pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with offensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots still on the board.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped offensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. Job largely done: linebacker settled and 5 of 9 of the wish list covered.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In No. 30 they get a run-stuffing presence up front at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas in the 56th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick72 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
They bypassed pressing needs at offensive lineman, edge rusher and other spots to take Maxwell Hairston, a cornerback that was not the priority.
Pick74 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond in Round 3, Pick 10 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick132 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Somehow Joshua Farmer was still sitting there in the 132nd pick, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jonas Sanker
The board fumbled Jonas Sanker all the way to the Round 5 slot, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick173 Rnd5 Shaun Dolac
Shaun Dolac at the 173rd overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick177 Rnd6 Nohl Williams
They will replay Nohl Williams at the 177th pick for years; that is how good the value is. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick206 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
Fair-plus on Luke Lachey, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
