Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Bills let Nubin fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

The Bills did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Tyler Nubin fell into slot 60. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. The roster is better shaped than it was, with linebacker chief among the fixes.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 28th overall pick they get a No. 1 receiver at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick60 Rnd2 Tyler Nubin
They barely believed it either: Tyler Nubin still on the board at slot 60. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick99 Rnd3 Javon Baker
A tidy little value on Javon Baker in pick No. 99, a step better than break-even. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick129 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
A slide stopped in pick 129, with Matt Goncalves worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick159 Rnd5 Marist Liufau
They let Marist Liufau come to them and pounced at the 159th pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick162 Rnd5 Xavier Thomas
Xavier Thomas in Round 5, Pick 26 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The roster fit checks out.
Pick198 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
Value with a capital V on M.J. Devonshire in No. 198, a genuine coup. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick202 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
A tidy bit of business in the Round 6 slot, where Tahj Washington graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick206 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Nothing to complain about; Joe Milton III went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick246 Rnd7 Evan Williams
By-the-book stuff, Evan Williams at No. 246 squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
