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

Call it larceny. Malaki Starks sat on the board until the 62nd pick, and the Bills did not need to be asked twice.

The Robinson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

They went 5 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 30th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick56 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
They paid sticker price for Azareye'h Thomas in Round 2, Pick 24, and that is fine. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick62 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
The board fumbled Malaki Starks all the way to the Round 2 slot, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick109 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
They took Smael Mondon Jr. at par in the 109th pick, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick132 Rnd4 Ty Robinson
They talked themselves into Ty Robinson at pick No. 132, and the board did not agree. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick169 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
A straight-up fair deal on Kyle Williams at No. 169, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at pick 170 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick173 Rnd5 Quincy Riley
By-the-book stuff, Quincy Riley at slot 173 squarely in line with his ranking. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick177 Rnd6 Connor Colby
Connor Colby at pick No. 177 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick206 Rnd6 Nazir Stackhouse
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Nazir Stackhouse. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
