Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills let Emmanwori fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Nick Emmanwori, the No. 19 name on the board, stolen at the 56th overall pick.

They will regret leaving linebacker for another day if the season turns on it. With linebacker, offensive lineman and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them.

They are betting West proves the room right and everyone else wrong. Interior defensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Shavon Revel Jr.
In the 30th overall pick they get a lockdown presence outside. More want than need.
Pick56 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They will replay Nick Emmanwori at No. 56 for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick62 Rnd2 Omarr Norman-Lott
They paid up for Omarr Norman-Lott at Round 2, Pick 30 when waiting would have done the job. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick109 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander at pick 109 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick132 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
A curious use of the 132nd pick. Linebacker, offensive lineman and other spots needed the pick; a cornerback in Cobee Bryant did not.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jah Joyner
Jah Joyner in the Round 5 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick170 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kyle Williams. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick173 Rnd5 CJ West
They liked CJ West enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 173. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick177 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
They took Quincy Riley at par in slot 177, which is nothing to complain about. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick206 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
Fair-plus on Jason Marshall Jr., a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
