Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureC+
The Bills won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Bills, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend.

A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
Ladd McConkey in pick No. 33 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick39 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
No edge and no loss on Chris Braswell in Round 2, Pick 7; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick77 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
By-the-book stuff, Calen Bullock at No. 77 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick128 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
Value with a capital V on Elijah Jones in pick 128, a genuine coup. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jamari Thrash
Fair-plus on Jamari Thrash, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick160 Rnd5 Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube at slot 160 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. It fills a real need, too.
Pick189 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
A tidy little value on Cornelius Johnson in the Round 6 slot, a step better than break-even. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick200 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
A reach on Drake Nugent in the 200th pick; the board had better options right there. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick204 Rnd6 Julian Pearl
Julian Pearl at pick No. 204 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick248 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Nice patience on Edefuan Ulofoshio, who had no business lasting to No. 248. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
