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

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Tanor Bortolini, 26 picks early at pick 163. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The Odunze pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 28th overall pick they get a No. 1 receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins at pick No. 60 is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick128 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
A reach on Jarrian Jones in No. 128; the board had better options right there. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick134 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten at pick 134 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick144 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
They went early on Kitan Oladapo in Round 5, Pick 8, and the value did not follow. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick160 Rnd5 Grayson Murphy
Grayson Murphy at the 160th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick163 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tanor Bortolini in pick No. 163, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 6 slot with a little surplus value in Jordan Jefferson. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick200 Rnd6 Ryan Flournoy
Ryan Flournoy in Round 6, Pick 25 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick204 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
The board had M.J. Devonshire higher than the 204th overall pick, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick248 Rnd7 Tyrice Knight
Tyrice Knight at No. 248 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
