Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Bills: B.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Barryn Sorrell at the 171st pick is 157 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The Barton pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. On the needs board they went 8 of 9, with linebacker the one that mattered most.

Nothing gained and nothing lost at the table.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In No. 30 they get a three-down second-level presence, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick58 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Taking Malaki Starks in the 58th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick62 Rnd2 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at pick No. 62 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick108 Rnd4 Jack Bech
Somehow Jack Bech was still sitting there in slot 108, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
They will replay Kevin Winston Jr. at pick 127 for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick131 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
They barely believed it either: Cam Skattebo still on the board at the Round 4 slot. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick171 Rnd5 Barryn Sorrell
A big swing on Barryn Sorrell at No. 171, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
Pick175 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
You do not let a tight end like Oronde Gadsden II reach the Round 5 slot and blink. They did not. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick179 Rnd6 Lander Barton
They robbed the room for Lander Barton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick206 Rnd6 Upton Stout
Upton Stout is a better player than Round 6, Pick 28 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick208 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
A swing that ignored the value entirely, DJ Campbell well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
