Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureB-
The Bills robbed the room for Jones. Final grade: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Elijah Jones tumbling to the Bills in pick No. 134 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped offensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. If Smith pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
No edge and no loss on Brian Thomas Jr. in the 28th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick60 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
A tidy little value on Payton Wilson in No. 60, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick99 Rnd3 Maason Smith
Maason Smith in Round 3, Pick 36 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Steal is underselling it; Elijah Jones at pick No. 134 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
They liked Jalyx Hunt enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 144. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick160 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
They jumped the gun on Malik Mustapha, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
