Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Bills.

It is a puzzling start. The Bills had linebacker, edge rusher and other spots to solve and reached instead for Maason Smith, a DT-EDGE, at pick 128. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

That Smith pick is the receipt they will wave around later. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker.

Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 5 of 9 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In No. 28 they get a weapon on the perimeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
No edge and no loss on Javon Bullard in the 60th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick128 Rnd4 Maason Smith
A want over a need in Round 4, Pick 28: Maason Smith adds a DT-EDGE while linebacker, edge rusher and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick134 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo in slot 134 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick144 Rnd5 Kalen King
A reasonable price with a little left over, Kalen King in pick 144. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick160 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo in the 160th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick163 Rnd5 Walter Rouse
A straight-up fair deal on Walter Rouse at No. 163, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick189 Rnd6 Fabien Lovett
Fabien Lovett at the Round 6 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick200 Rnd6 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
They did well to land Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in pick No. 200, just ahead of his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick204 Rnd6 Logan Lee
Logan Lee at pick No. 204 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick248 Rnd7 Daijahn Anthony
Daijahn Anthony at pick 248 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
