Draft Grade — Bills
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Bills: B-.

The Bills put a flag in the ground for Fernando Carmona, 69 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 4 of 9 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Kayden McDonald
In the 24th pick they get a wrecking ball inside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick55 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
A straight-up fair deal on Dillon Thieneman at the Round 2 slot, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick88 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
Omar Cooper Jr. in the 88th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick123 Rnd4 Tao Johnson
No drama and no debate, Tao Johnson went about where he belonged in Round 4, Pick 23. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick177 Rnd5 CJ Daniels
CJ Daniels at pick No. 177 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick203 Rnd6 Fernando Carmona
Fernando Carmona at slot 203 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick221 Rnd7 Barion Brown
Barion Brown at the Round 7 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick230 Rnd7 Bryce Foster
Bryce Foster at slot 230 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick239 Rnd7 Bear Alexander
Bear Alexander at the 239th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick254 Rnd7 Ricardo Hallman
No edge and no loss on Ricardo Hallman in Round 7, Pick 39; it is a wash and a sensible one. It adds depth where they could use a little.
