Draft Grade — Bills
Overall F
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureD
The Bills let Keegan fall and pounced. Final grade: F.

The Bills treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick No. 204 on Kimani Vidal a full 49 spots early.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. Getting Keegan where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

The verdict is harsh because the weekend was, and there is little to argue.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
No drama and no debate, Rome Odunze went about where he belonged in the Round 1 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick60 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins at Round 2, Pick 28 is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick90 Rnd3 Austin Booker
Value with a capital V on Austin Booker in pick 90, a genuine coup. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick128 Rnd4 James Williams
Fair-plus on James Williams, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Christian Jones
They took Christian Jones at par in Round 4, Pick 34, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick160 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Nehemiah Pritchett at pick No. 160. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick200 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
They will replay Trevor Keegan at the 200th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick204 Rnd6 Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal at No. 204 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
