Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills won the night they stopped McCormick from sliding. Grade: B-.

Somebody in Round 6, Pick 14 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Bills sat still while Mason McCormick, the No. 146 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Every board in the league had Hall lower, and that gap is the story.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In No. 28 they get a difference-maker at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
They took Bralen Trice at par in pick No. 60, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick128 Rnd4 James Williams
Good price on James Williams in the Round 4 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
A straight-up fair deal on Jarrian Jones at the 134th pick, value and slot in agreement. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick144 Rnd5 Isaiah Davis
Isaiah Davis at Round 5, Pick 8 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick160 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
They went early on Malik Mustapha in pick 160, and the value did not follow. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick163 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
The board had cheaper options than Khristian Boyd at the 163rd overall pick, and it noticed. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick189 Rnd6 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at slot 189 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick200 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
A real head-scratcher, Gabe Hall in pick No. 200 is miles ahead of his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick204 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
Fair-plus on Steele Chambers, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick248 Rnd7 Jalen Coker
Jalen Coker at the 248th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
