Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills robbed the room for Evans. Final grade: B.

The Bills spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Mitchell Evans, the No. 144 name on the board, in the Round 6 slot. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. If Hairston pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Job largely done: linebacker settled and 7 of 9 of the wish list covered.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In slot 30 they get a run-stuffing presence up front, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick56 Rnd2 Tre Harris
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tre Harris at the 56th pick is the proof. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick62 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
A conviction pick on Maxwell Hairston at pick 62 that the board grades a round light. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick108 Rnd4 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman at the Round 4 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick131 Rnd4 Billy Bowman Jr.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Billy Bowman Jr. in Round 4, Pick 30. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick171 Rnd5 LeQuint Allen
LeQuint Allen at pick No. 171 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick175 Rnd5 Tyler Cooper
Tyler Cooper at No. 175 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick179 Rnd6 Mitchell Evans
A tight end of that caliber at the 179th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick206 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in slot 206 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick208 Rnd6 Alex Mastromanno
They paid sticker price for Alex Mastromanno in pick No. 208, and that is fine. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
