Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

Nobody else had Isaac TeSlaa anywhere near No. 206. The Bills did, by 27 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

They will regret leaving safety for another day if the season turns on it. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Barron.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In No. 30 they get a press-man option on the boundary at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jack Bech
Jack Bech at the 56th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick62 Rnd2 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger at the Round 2 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips at the 109th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jake Majors
No edge and no loss on Jake Majors in pick 132; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick169 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
They took Chase Lundt at par in Round 5, Pick 31, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick170 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
They paid sticker price for Chase Lundt in Round 5, Pick 32, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at the Round 5 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick177 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues in the 177th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick206 Rnd6 Isaac TeSlaa
A big swing on Isaac TeSlaa at pick No. 206, well ahead of any board in the building. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
