Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Bills fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

Whoever sat across the table from the Bills should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend.

The Nourzad pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In slot 32 they get a go-to option on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
No edge and no loss on Bralen Trice in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick95 Rnd3 Cole Bishop
They jumped the gun on Cole Bishop, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick128 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Elijah Jones at the 128th pick. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick132 Rnd4 Hunter Nourzad
Value said wait; Hunter Nourzad in No. 132 says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134 Rnd4 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in pick No. 134 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick144 Rnd5 Ainias Smith
Good price on Ainias Smith in Round 5, Pick 8, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick160 Rnd5 Isaiah Davis
Fair-plus on Isaiah Davis, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick163 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson at slot 163 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick196 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Curtis Jacobs. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick204 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
A reach on Gabe Hall in pick No. 204; the board had better options right there. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick248 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
They did well to land Josh Proctor in No. 248, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
