Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Bills: B-.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Bills shredded theirs for Elijah Roberts. He came off 52 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

The Lundt steal is the beam this whole class leans on. That linebacker hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the linebacker spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 30th pick they get a run-stuffing presence up front, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
A reach on Donovan Ezeiruaku in slot 56; the board had better options right there. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick62 Rnd2 Andrew Mukuba
By-the-book stuff, Andrew Mukuba at No. 62 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick108 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
They reached a country mile for O'Donnell Fortune at the Round 4 slot, and the board is aghast. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick131 Rnd4 Elijah Roberts
Elijah Roberts in the 131st overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick171 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dorian Strong. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick175 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They liked Dont'e Thornton Jr. enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 5, Pick 36. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick179 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
They did well to land Ollie Gordon II in the Round 6 slot, just ahead of his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick206 Rnd6 Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt at the 206th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick208 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Miles Frazier well ahead of where he belonged. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
