Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Bills would have aced it. DeMonte Capehart at slot 246 is 52 spots clear of where he belonged. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

Nabers at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The Solomon pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at linebacker, edge rusher and other spots. On the needs board they went 6 of 9, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In slot 28 they get a home-run threat at receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in Round 2, Pick 28 is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick99 Rnd3 Javon Solomon
A surprising call. With linebacker, edge rusher and other spots still to address, they spent the Round 3 slot on Javon Solomon, an OLB-EDGE they were not short of.
Pick129 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at pick No. 129 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick159 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
They paid sticker price for Braelon Allen in the 159th overall pick, and that is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick162 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at the 162nd pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick197 Rnd6 Christian Jones
The board had cheaper options than Christian Jones at slot 197, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick202 Rnd6 Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal at the 202nd overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick206 Rnd6 AJ Barner
Nothing to complain about; AJ Barner went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick246 Rnd7 DeMonte Capehart
A real head-scratcher, DeMonte Capehart in pick No. 246 is miles ahead of his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
