Larceny in the Round 7 slot lands the Bills a B-, Hartman and all.

Call it larceny. Sam Hartman sat on the board until the 249th overall pick, and the Bills did not need to be asked twice.

The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. If Jefferson pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get a true top target. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell in slot 60 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick99 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson is a better player than No. 99 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick128 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
They took Cole Bishop at par in the 128th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick162 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
A wild overpay on Jordan Jefferson in the 162nd pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick165 Rnd5 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at pick No. 165 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick197 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
Gabe Hall in the Round 6 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick202 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Josh Proctor at pick 202. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick206 Rnd6 Christian Jones
The board had Christian Jones higher than slot 206, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick249 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman in pick No. 249 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
