Larceny in Round 2, Pick 28 lands the Bills a B, Hill Jr. and all.

The Bills spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Anthony Hill Jr., the No. 38 name on the board, in the 60th pick.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The cost of the Halton reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Linebacker is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 KC Concepcion
By-the-book stuff, KC Concepcion at the 26th pick squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick60 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
Taking Anthony Hill Jr. in Round 2, Pick 28 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick91 Rnd3 Genesis Smith
Genesis Smith at pick No. 91 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Gracen Halton
Gracen Halton at slot 126 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick166 Rnd5 Kage Casey
Kage Casey in pick 166 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick220 Rnd7 Jadon Canady
Value with a capital V on Jadon Canady in No. 220, a genuine coup. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick228 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
Jeff Caldwell at the 228th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
