Draft Grade — Bills
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureB+
The Bills got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Evan Anderson in Round 7, Pick 26, a good 61 spots before the room expected him.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up.

Getting Hadden where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a true top target. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Xavier Legette. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick60 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They paid sticker price for T'Vondre Sweat in slot 60, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick65 Rnd3 Ja'Tavion Sanders
A quiet steal in the Round 3 slot: Ja'Tavion Sanders for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick89 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
Marshawn Kneeland at pick No. 89 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick127 Rnd4 James Williams
They paid up for James Williams at the 127th pick when waiting would have done the job. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick129 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop at Round 4, Pick 29 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick159 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
The board fumbled Kamal Hadden all the way to No. 159, and they scooped it up. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick162 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
A tidy little value on Braelon Allen in slot 162, a step better than break-even. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick197 Rnd6 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten at the 197th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick202 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
They talked themselves into Tanor Bortolini at pick 202, and the board did not agree. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick206 Rnd6 Solomon Byrd
Solomon Byrd at the Round 6 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick246 Rnd7 Evan Anderson
Evan Anderson in pick No. 246 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
