Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Bills.

The Bills looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Jermari Harris at the Round 6 slot regardless, 31 picks early. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Watts. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jayden Higgins
In Round 1, Pick 30 they get a true top target, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
A straight-up fair deal on Alfred Collins at the 56th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick62 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
They robbed the room for Xavier Watts here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick109 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong at No. 109 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick132 Rnd4 Kobe King
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 132 with a little surplus value in Kobe King. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
They paid sticker price for Jonah Monheim in pick 169, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jaydon Blue
A conviction pick on Jaydon Blue at slot 170 that the board grades a round light. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick173 Rnd5 CJ West
A premium they did not need to pay, CJ West a notch or two before his time. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick177 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at the Round 6 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick206 Rnd6 Jermari Harris
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jermari Harris well ahead of where he belonged. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
