Best value of the weekend goes to the Bills for Schrader: B-. Thirty-one other rooms let Cody Schrader slide, and the Bills were the ones holding the card at No. 204. Highway robbery.
Briggs has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Job largely done: linebacker settled and 7 of 9 of the wish list covered.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick36
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette in the Round 2 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick60
Rnd2
Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall at the 60th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick78
Rnd3
Sedrick Van Pran
A clean, defensible pick in Round 3, Pick 14 with a little surplus value in Sedrick Van Pran. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick128
Rnd4
Chau Smith-Wade
Chau Smith-Wade at pick No. 128 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick134
Rnd4
Justin Eboigbe
A conviction pick on Justin Eboigbe at the 134th overall pick that the board grades a round light. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick144
Rnd5
Sione Vaki
A reach for Sione Vaki in pick 144; a little patience would have been rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick160
Rnd5
Malik Mustapha
They paid up for Malik Mustapha at slot 160 when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick163
Rnd5
Walter Rouse
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Walter Rouse. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick189
Rnd6
Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper slipping to the 189th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick200
Rnd6
Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent at pick No. 200 is a conviction pick that outran the value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick204
Rnd6
Cody Schrader
Taking Cody Schrader in No. 204 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick248
Rnd7
Jowon Briggs
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jowon Briggs this early at Round 7, Pick 28. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
