Draft Grade — Bills
Overall D
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Bills let Fisher fall and pounced. Final grade: D.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Bills, and the value they bled adds up to real damage.

The Fisher steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Reaching for Bortolini left real value on the table behind him.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. They will answer for taking DT-EDGE early while interior defensive lineman, safety and other spots went begging.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Adonai Mitchell
In pick No. 30 they get a home-run threat at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick60 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at No. 60 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick93 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson in the Round 3 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick106 Rnd4 Maason Smith
A want over a need in slot 106: Maason Smith adds a DT-EDGE while interior defensive lineman, safety and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick128 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
They barely believed it either: Blake Fisher still on the board at the 128th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the 130th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick134 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten at the Round 4 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick144 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg in No. 144 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick160 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini at the 160th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick163 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett at the 163rd pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
