Draft Grade — Bills
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
Larceny in slot 189 lands the Bills a D, Hadden and all.

Somebody took the Bills to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. A D that will need time and luck to look better.

The Greenfield pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They will regret leaving safety for another day if the season turns on it. However the rest shakes out, Hadden at that price is a win they earned.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, safety very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a No. 1 receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick29 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In the 29th pick they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Fair-plus on Payton Wilson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick101 Rnd4 Maason Smith
Maason Smith at pick 101 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick134 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten in No. 134 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick144 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
No edge and no loss on Trevor Keegan in Round 5, Pick 8; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick163 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey at the Round 5 slot is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick189 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at No. 189 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick200 Rnd6 Garret Greenfield
The board had cheaper options than Garret Greenfield at pick No. 200, and it noticed. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
