Draft Grade — Bills
Overall D
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Bills to a D.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Bills spent slot 206 on Trevin Wallace, a name the board had a full 30 spots lower. Put together, it is a D.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Landing Hicks that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, running back very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get juice off the edge, and a steal at that.
Pick44 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
A quiet steal in the 44th pick: Adonai Mitchell for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick60 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske at No. 60 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick99 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in slot 99 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick113 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Brenden Rice at pick No. 113. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick129 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones in the 129th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick143 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Good price on Christian Jones in pick 143, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick159 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis in slot 159 is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick162 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Trevor Keegan. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick198 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
A tidy bit of business in the Round 6 slot, where Cornelius Johnson graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick206 Rnd6 Trevin Wallace
Value said wait; Trevin Wallace in the 206th overall pick says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
