Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills kept it disciplined and banked a B.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Bills walked out of the weekend still thin at linebacker, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with interior defensive lineman chief among the fixes.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In slot 30 they get a home-run threat at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick56 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas in pick 56 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick62 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 2 slot with a little surplus value in Alfred Collins. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
