Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills won the night they stopped Jones from sliding. Grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Elijah Jones, the 246th pick, roughly 53 picks past where he belonged.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped offensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. They will need Proctor to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the 28th pick they get a premier pass rusher. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
A tidy little value on Xavier Worthy in the 60th overall pick, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick99 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard in Round 3, Pick 36 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick129 Rnd4 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson at pick No. 129 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick159 Rnd5 Kalen King
Kalen King at No. 159 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick162 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo in slot 162 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick198 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers at the Round 6 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick202 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
They let Cornelius Johnson come to them and pounced at pick 202. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick206 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
A premium they did not need to pay, Josh Proctor a notch or two before his time. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick246 Rnd7 Elijah Jones
You do not let a cornerback like Elijah Jones reach the 246th pick and blink. They did not. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
