Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC+
The Bills fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Bills, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. No fireworks, but a solid B.

Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. If Hicks pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The Bills clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette at slot 35 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick60 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at Round 2, Pick 28 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
They jumped the gun on Jaden Hicks, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick105 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
A premium they did not need to pay, Mohamed Kamara a notch or two before his time. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick129 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
A reach on Beaux Limmer in the Round 4 slot; the board had better options right there. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick137 Rnd5 James Williams
They took James Williams at par in pick 137, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick159 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
By-the-book stuff, Braelon Allen at the 159th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick162 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at No. 162 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
