Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Bills and Jones Jr.: B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Emery Jones Jr. at No. 175 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

Reaching for Higgins left real value on the table behind him. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at pick No. 30 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick56 Rnd2 Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison in the 56th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick62 Rnd2 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Demetrius Knight Jr. in the 62nd pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick108 Rnd4 Jamaree Caldwell
A wild overpay on Jamaree Caldwell in Round 4, Pick 7, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick131 Rnd4 Billy Bowman Jr.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Billy Bowman Jr. in the Round 4 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick171 Rnd5 Ben Sauls
Ben Sauls is a better player than slot 171 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick175 Rnd5 Emery Jones Jr.
Somehow Emery Jones Jr. was still sitting there in No. 175, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick179 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
A premium they did not need to pay, Joshua Gray a notch or two before his time. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick206 Rnd6 Cam Jackson
The board had cheaper options than Cam Jackson at No. 206, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick208 Rnd6 Jabbar Muhammad
They talked themselves into Jabbar Muhammad at the Round 6 slot, and the board did not agree. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
