Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Bills for Rice: B.

Call it larceny. Brenden Rice sat on the board until the Round 3 slot, and the Bills did not need to be asked twice.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Reaching for Williams left real value on the table behind him. Linebacker was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
Nate Wiggins slid further than he should have, and slot 28 is lovely value for the cornerback. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick60 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
They will replay Tyler Nubin at No. 60 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick99 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
They barely believed it either: Brenden Rice still on the board at the 99th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick129 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
Taking Dominick Puni in pick No. 129 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick159 Rnd5 Logan Lee
A reasonable price with a little left over, Logan Lee in pick 159. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick172 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at Round 5, Pick 36 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick197 Rnd6 Javon Baker
They read the board right and Javon Baker was the payoff at the 197th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick202 Rnd6 Miyan Williams
They liked Miyan Williams enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 6 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick206 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
Value with a capital V on Josh Proctor in slot 206, a genuine coup. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick210 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
They took De'Corian Clark at par in Round 6, Pick 35, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick246 Rnd7 J.J. Weaver
No drama and no debate, J.J. Weaver went about where he belonged in pick No. 246. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
