Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Bills a B-.

The Bills torched the value chart for David Walker, taking him 64 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

On value alone, Higgins makes the weekend a net positive. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

They left with linebacker solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kenneth Grant in the Round 1 slot. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea at Round 2, Pick 24 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick62 Rnd2 Darien Porter
This one needs a full-page explanation: Darien Porter in slot 62, miles early. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick108 Rnd4 David Walker
David Walker at No. 108 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick131 Rnd4 Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts at pick No. 131 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick171 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
No drama and no debate, Dorian Strong went about where he belonged in the 171st overall pick. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick175 Rnd5 Jay Higgins
You do not let a linebacker like Jay Higgins reach slot 175 and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick179 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in pick No. 179 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick206 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
They read the board right and KeAndre Lambert-Smith was the payoff at the Round 6 slot. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick208 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
A clean, defensible pick in No. 208 with a little surplus value in Jordan Hancock. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
