Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesC FutureB-
The Bills won the night they stopped Harris from sliding. Grade: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Tre Harris got past him. The Bills do not have to explain a thing at pick 173. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

If Dolac pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. With quarterback, running back and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
Jahdae Barron in the Round 1 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick56 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
They barely believed it either: Kenneth Grant still on the board at No. 56. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick62 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori in slot 62 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick94 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Of all the spots to shop, they chose cornerback. Maxwell Hairston in the 94th overall pick leaves quarterback, running back and other spots for later.
Pick109 Rnd4 Armand Membou
Armand Membou at pick No. 109 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick169 Rnd5 Bradyn Swinson
Bradyn Swinson in pick 169 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick173 Rnd5 Tre Harris
Taking Tre Harris in the 173rd pick is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick206 Rnd6 Shaun Dolac
A big swing on Shaun Dolac at Round 6, Pick 30, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
