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

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Xavier Truss, 97 picks early at Round 6, Pick 30.

That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with linebacker chief among the fixes.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In slot 30 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
The board fumbled Nick Emmanwori all the way to the 56th overall pick, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick62 Rnd2 Trey Amos
A quiet steal in the 62nd pick: Trey Amos for less than the market said. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick108 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
They will replay Tez Johnson at pick No. 108 for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick131 Rnd4 Elijah Arroyo
Circle this one: Elijah Arroyo at No. 131 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick171 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at Round 5, Pick 32 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick175 Rnd5 Sebastian Castro
Somehow Sebastian Castro was still sitting there in slot 175, and they pounced on premier safety value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick179 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
They barely believed it either: Cam Skattebo still on the board at Round 6, Pick 1. The roster fit checks out.
Pick206 Rnd6 Addison West
Addison West in the 206th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick208 Rnd6 Xavier Truss
A big swing on Xavier Truss at No. 208, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
