Why
Buffalo needs to reinforce WR and DL; these are the two positions currently lacking clear starters or reliable depth. Beyond that, CB and S also require competition to avoid falling short in the medium term.

Track record read
Brandon Beane's Bills in recent years appear to employ a specific first-round strategy: completely avoiding Round 1. They prefer to pass on 'marquee value' talents, instead targeting players they believe possess a high floor in the second round. Interestingly, with the Fortson selection, they continue to consistently bet on SEC talent, particularly from Georgia, though with Coleman, they also demonstrated a willingness to wait for a top-60 wide receiver.
The board · Rounds 1–7
Three names per every pick.
Only the rounds where the team owns a pick (per Tankathon). A blend of need plus best value on the board.
First round
3 names
Jeremiah Smith
Ohio State
WRSmith es el WR1 que necesitaban. Lo pones frente a cualquier DB y gana; su techo es de los más altos en años.
Colin Simmons
Texas
DLSuma ese pop que se necesita en el DL. Alto techo como pass rusher de volumen, pero con el run defense un poco verde aún.
Leonard Moore
Notre Dame
CBMoore es el parche de cierre que el secundario de Bills necesita. Su agresividad y fluidez dan un techo altísimo, solo hay que pulir las manos.
Second round
1 name
Third round
3 names
Wyatt Young
Oklahoma State
WREste WR le da a Herbert un alivio confiable en el slot, manos seguras que tanto necesita. Un floor alto para ya.
Clev Lubin
Louisville
DLTrae un edge setter natural para el A-gap; el floor es alto, el techo depende de si desarrolla arsenal de pass-rush.
Brice Pollock
Texas Tech
CBParche en el slot para cubrir esas rotaciones de CBs. Tiene el tapete y la fluidez, pero necesita ese plus de fuerza.
