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

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Jake Majors, pick No. 169, roughly 78 picks past where he belonged. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The Martin reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The roster is better shaped than it was, with linebacker chief among the fixes.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick47 Rnd2 Matthew Golden
Matthew Golden in the 47th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Circle this one: Jalon Walker at the 56th pick is a fall that decides a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick62 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at pick No. 62 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick78 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Steal is underselling it; Xavier Watts at slot 78 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick107 Rnd4 Tommi Hill
They paid up for Tommi Hill at the Round 4 slot when waiting would have done the job. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick130 Rnd4 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger at pick 130 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jake Majors
You do not let an offensive lineman like Jake Majors reach Round 5, Pick 32 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick172 Rnd5 Ricky White III
They liked Ricky White III enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 172. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick175 Rnd5 Nick Martin
This one needs a full-page explanation: Nick Martin in Round 5, Pick 38, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick202 Rnd6 Aydan White
Aydan White at pick No. 202 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick204 Rnd6 Garrett Dellinger
They talked themselves into Garrett Dellinger at slot 204, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
