Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Bills.

The tape said wait; the Bills did not. Braiden McGregor went at No. 166, a good 32 picks before the board was ready.

For all the activity, offensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Baker.

Good work on the whole, with offensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Xavier Legette
In the 29th pick they get a difference-maker at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick61 Rnd2 Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo in pick No. 61 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick99 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
They let Roman Wilson come to them and pounced at No. 99. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick129 Rnd4 Max Melton
Somehow Max Melton was still sitting there in Round 4, Pick 29, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick162 Rnd5 Cedric Johnson
They did well to land Cedric Johnson in slot 162, just ahead of his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick166 Rnd5 Braiden McGregor
A big swing on Braiden McGregor at pick 166, well ahead of any board in the building. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick198 Rnd6 Javon Baker
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Javon Baker in slot 198, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
Jared Wiley at pick 202 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jalen Green
No edge and no loss on Jalen Green in No. 207; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick250 Rnd7 Derek Wingo
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Derek Wingo. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
