Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Bills won the night they stopped Polk from sliding. Grade: B+.

When a board-topper like Ja'Lynn Polk slides to Round 3, Pick 36, you do not overthink it, and the Bills did not.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The CJ Henderson pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns. Job largely done: linebacker settled and 5 of 9 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 JC Latham
In Round 1, Pick 29 they get a long-term starter on the line, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at the 61st overall pick, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick99 Rnd3 Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk in pick No. 99 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick129 Rnd4 Beau Brade
Beau Brade in No. 129 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick156 Rnd5 Mike Sainristil
They robbed the room for Mike Sainristil here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick166 Rnd5 Frank Gore Jr.
No drama and no debate, Frank Gore Jr. went about where he belonged in the 166th pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick207 Rnd6 Darius Muasau
A tidy bit of business in pick 207, where Darius Muasau graded well above the range. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick208 Rnd6 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten at the Round 6 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick222 Rnd7 Curtis Jacobs
The board fumbled Curtis Jacobs all the way to pick No. 222, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick250 Rnd7 Evan Williams
Evan Williams at pick 250 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
