Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Mondon Jr. should have been long gone. The Bills pounced, and earned a B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Smael Mondon Jr., the No. 98 name on the board, stolen at the 172nd pick.

The Dellinger pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. They left with linebacker solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

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

Pick Analysis
Pick47 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
The board fumbled Jalon Walker all the way to pick 47, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick56 Rnd2 Denzel Burke
They paid a round early for Denzel Burke in the 56th pick, more than the board wanted. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick62 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
A slide stopped in slot 62, with Tyleik Williams worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick78 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor at pick No. 78 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick107 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
Circle this one: Andrew Mukuba at the 107th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick130 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
They liked DeMonte Capehart enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 4 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick169 Rnd5 Carson Schwesinger
Steal is underselling it; Carson Schwesinger at Round 5, Pick 32 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick172 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in No. 172 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick175 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
They reached into another round for Davison Igbinosun, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick202 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
They paid sticker price for DJ Campbell in the 202nd overall pick, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick204 Rnd6 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger at the 204th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
