Grand theft in the Round 6 slot: the Bills steal Smith-Wade and grade out a B-.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Chau Smith-Wade tumbling to the Bills in the 197th overall pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

For all the activity, offensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. Brade has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. at slot 28 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick60 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on T'Vondre Sweat. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick99 Rnd3 Beau Brade
Beau Brade at Round 3, Pick 36 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick128 Rnd4 Malik Washington
Malik Washington at No. 128 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick162 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at pick 162 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick165 Rnd5 Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. at the 165th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The roster fit checks out.
Pick197 Rnd6 Chau Smith-Wade
Chau Smith-Wade at the Round 6 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick202 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
They paid sticker price for Gabe Hall in the 202nd overall pick, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick206 Rnd6 Jha'Quan Jackson
Jha'Quan Jackson in the 206th pick is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick249 Rnd7 Tatum Bethune
They took Tatum Bethune at par in pick No. 249, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
