Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills let Morrison fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Benjamin Morrison, the No. 43 name on the board, stolen at the Round 2 slot.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Job largely done: linebacker settled and 6 of 9 of the wish list covered.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In pick 30 they get a centerfielder for the defense, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
The board fumbled Jihaad Campbell all the way to Round 2, Pick 24, and they scooped it up. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick62 Rnd2 Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison at the Round 2 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick109 Rnd4 Tai Felton
They read the board right and Tai Felton was the payoff at No. 109. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick132 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Taking Joshua Farmer in pick No. 132 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
Tommi Hill slipping to slot 169 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick170 Rnd5 RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey in the 170th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. The roster fit checks out.
Pick173 Rnd5 Ryan Fitzgerald
Nice patience on Ryan Fitzgerald, who had no business lasting to the 173rd overall pick. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick177 Rnd6 Seth McLaughlin
Value with a capital V on Seth McLaughlin in No. 177, a genuine coup. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick206 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
A tidy bit of business in slot 206, where KeAndre Lambert-Smith graded well above the range. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
