Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Bills, and a B- to prove it.

The war room fell hard for Richard Jibunor, and it showed at the Round 6 slot: 130 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

For all the activity, linebacker went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Simpson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Troy Franklin
In Round 1, Pick 28 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Adisa Isaac
Adisa Isaac at pick 60 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick99 Rnd3 Luke McCaffrey
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Luke McCaffrey well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick128 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at No. 128 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick162 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
They let Jaylin Simpson come to them and pounced at the Round 5 slot. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick165 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at slot 165 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick197 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A straight-up fair deal on Christian Jones at No. 197, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick202 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
They went early on Tanor Bortolini in pick No. 202, and the value did not follow. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick206 Rnd6 Richard Jibunor
Richard Jibunor at the Round 6 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fits a board better than it fits this team.
Pick249 Rnd7 DeMonte Capehart
A wild overpay on DeMonte Capehart in pick 249, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
