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

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Bub Means at the Round 6 slot, a reach of 59 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

Mitchell at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. With linebacker, interior defensive lineman and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on DT-EDGE is the choice that costs them.

The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In No. 28 they get a home-run threat at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
They will replay Quinyon Mitchell at slot 60 for years; that is how good the value is. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick99 Rnd3 Maason Smith
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick 99 on Maason Smith with linebacker, interior defensive lineman and other spots unsolved.
Pick129 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
A straight-up fair deal on Mohamed Kamara at the Round 4 slot, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick159 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 159 with a little surplus value in Kitan Oladapo. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick162 Rnd5 Walter Rouse
A reach on Walter Rouse in the 162nd overall pick; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick198 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
A slide stopped in pick No. 198, with M.J. Devonshire worth more than the price. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick202 Rnd6 Bub Means
Value said wait; Bub Means in pick 202 says they were not listening. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick206 Rnd6 Trey Knox
This one needs a full-page explanation: Trey Knox in Round 6, Pick 31, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick246 Rnd7 Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal at the 246th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
