Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureC+
A solid, sensible weekend for the Bills: B-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Bills started one anyway for Beau Brade, 30 picks ahead of schedule.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get a matchup problem out wide. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick71 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
They took Patrick Paul at par in No. 71, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick104 Rnd4 Beau Brade
Beau Brade at the 104th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick128 Rnd4 Jalyx Hunt
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jalyx Hunt in pick 128, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick134 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at pick No. 134 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick144 Rnd5 Dillon Johnson
A real head-scratcher, Dillon Johnson in the 144th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick160 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini at the 160th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick163 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
Value said wait; Jordan Jefferson in pick 163 says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
