Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureB
More right than wrong for the Bills, and a B- to prove it.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Bills spent the Round 5 slot on Tanor Bortolini, a name most had 27 spots down the list. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

Landing Milton that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In the 31st pick they get a matchup problem out wide. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie in pick No. 60 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick116 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
The board had Cole Bishop higher than pick 116, and the safety fell to them anyway. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick128 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson in Round 4, Pick 28 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick134 Rnd4 Nehemiah Pritchett
A reach on Nehemiah Pritchett in the 134th overall pick; the board had better options right there. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
No drama and no debate, Jalyx Hunt went about where he belonged in the Round 5 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick160 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
A big swing on Tanor Bortolini at the 160th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick189 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
They paid sticker price for Cornelius Johnson in pick 189, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick200 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
A tidy bit of business in No. 200, where Johnny Dixon graded well above the range. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick204 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
JD Bertrand in slot 204 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick215 Rnd6 Kendall Milton
Kendall Milton at Round 6, Pick 40 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick253 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
Tyler Owens at the Round 7 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
