Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
Grand theft in Round 6, Pick 25: the Bills steal Tracy Jr. and grade out a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Tyrone Tracy Jr. had no business being available in pick No. 200, and the Bills did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

For all the activity, linebacker went untouched, which is hard to explain. Every board in the league had Jefferson lower, and that gap is the story. Offensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
A tidy little value on Ladd McConkey in pick 33, a step better than break-even. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
No drama and no debate, T.J. Tampa went about where he belonged in slot 60. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick101 Rnd4 Blake Corum
Blake Corum at No. 101 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick133 Rnd4 Hunter Nourzad
A quiet steal in the 133rd pick: Hunter Nourzad for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt at Round 5, Pick 8 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It fills a real need, too.
Pick160 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo in pick No. 160 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick163 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson in the Round 5 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick200 Rnd6 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
They will replay Tyrone Tracy Jr. at the 200th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick204 Rnd6 Myles Harden
Myles Harden in Round 6, Pick 29 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick248 Rnd7 Justin Rogers
Justin Rogers at the Round 7 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
