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

The Bills spent real capital to be 81 picks early on Joey Slackman, and the board is going to hold them to it.

Emmanwori falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

On the needs board they went 6 of 9, with linebacker the one that mattered most. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 30th overall pick they get a disruptive interior force. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick56 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at Round 2, Pick 24 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick62 Rnd2 Darien Porter
A reach on Darien Porter in the 62nd pick; the board had better options right there. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick107 Rnd4 Sonny Styles
The board had cheaper options than Sonny Styles at slot 107, and it noticed. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick130 Rnd4 Pat Bryant
They went early on Pat Bryant in pick No. 130, and the value did not follow. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick169 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
They robbed the room for Oronde Gadsden II here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick172 Rnd5 Jaishawn Barham
They reached a country mile for Jaishawn Barham at slot 172, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick175 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
A conviction pick on Jack Kiser at Round 5, Pick 38 that the board grades a round light. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick202 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Miles Frazier. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick204 Rnd6 Joey Slackman
A big swing on Joey Slackman at pick No. 204, well ahead of any board in the building. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
