Draft Grade — Bills
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Bills to a D-.

The Bills treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 60 on Johnny Wilson a full 65 spots early. Hard to defend, and the D- reflects that.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. On value alone, Jones makes the weekend a net positive.

On the needs board they went 6 of 9, with linebacker the one that mattered most.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and quarterback is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In slot 28 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Johnny Wilson
A big swing on Johnny Wilson at Round 2, Pick 28, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick68 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Payton Wilson at pick No. 68 is the proof. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick103 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
Circle this one: Jaden Hicks at pick 103 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick134 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Mohamed Kamara. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick144 Rnd5 Elijah Jones
Somehow Elijah Jones was still sitting there in the 144th overall pick, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick160 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Luke McCaffrey in No. 160. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson at slot 189 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
