Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Bills for Simon: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Cody Simon had no business being available in the 206th pick, and the Bills did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

They are betting Bond proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
The board had Nick Emmanwori higher than pick No. 30, and the safety fell to them anyway. It fills a real need, too.
Pick56 Rnd2 Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond at the 56th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
Marcus Mbow slipping to pick 62 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick109 Rnd4 Nohl Williams
They went early on Nohl Williams in Round 4, Pick 7, and the value did not follow. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick132 Rnd4 Jamaree Caldwell
By-the-book stuff, Jamaree Caldwell at slot 132 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick169 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jeffrey Bassa in the Round 5 slot, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
You do not let a linebacker like Jeffrey Bassa reach the 170th overall pick and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick173 Rnd5 Dillon Gabriel
The board fumbled Dillon Gabriel all the way to No. 173, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick177 Rnd6 Dillon Gabriel
A quarterback of that caliber at the 177th pick is the definition of value, full stop. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick206 Rnd6 Cody Simon
Cody Simon in No. 206 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
