Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Bills, and a B- to prove it.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Bills spent the 240th overall pick on Shaun Dolac, a name most had 101 spots down the list. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. Skattebo falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In the 30th overall pick they get an enforcer at safety, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at the 56th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick62 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
A conviction pick on Maxwell Hairston at Round 2, Pick 30 that the board grades a round light. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at slot 109 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick132 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
They robbed the room for Cam Skattebo here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at pick 169 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
They jumped the gun on Jack Kiser, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick173 Rnd5 CJ West
They liked CJ West enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 5, Pick 35. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick177 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They paid sticker price for Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 177th overall pick, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick233 Rnd7 Bilhal Kone
Bilhal Kone in No. 233 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick240 Rnd7 Shaun Dolac
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Shaun Dolac well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
