Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Bills: B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Bills took DJ Harvey at pick 96, roughly 24 spots before his name belonged. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The Taaffe pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Interior defensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Eric Rivers
In the Round 1 slot they get a No. 1 receiver, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick64 Rnd2 Michael Taaffe
A slide stopped in the 64th pick, with Michael Taaffe worth more than the price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick96 Rnd3 DJ Harvey
Value said wait; DJ Harvey in pick No. 96 says they were not listening. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick132 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
DeMonte Capehart in pick 132 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick171 Rnd5 Smith Snowden
Smith Snowden at Round 5, Pick 33 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
