Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Bills: B-.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Bills reached some 117 spots for Shaun Dolac, and value like that does not grow back. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The Parrish pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with quarterback, running back and other spots still on the board. Watts at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant at the Round 1 slot is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick56 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
They took Donovan Ezeiruaku at par in slot 56, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick62 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Circle this one: Xavier Watts at No. 62 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick109 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
They read the board right and Zy Alexander was the payoff at the 109th overall pick. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
A want over a need in Round 4, Pick 30: Jacob Parrish adds a cornerback while quarterback, running back and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick169 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A conviction pick on Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick 169 that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick170 Rnd5 Ty Robinson
Value with a capital V on Ty Robinson in slot 170, a genuine coup. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick173 Rnd5 James Burnip
James Burnip slipping to the 173rd overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick177 Rnd6 Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt slid further than he should have, and the Round 6 slot is lovely value for the offensive lineman. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick206 Rnd6 Shaun Dolac
Shaun Dolac at pick No. 206 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
