The Buffalo Bills have been knocking on the door for seven straight years and have yet to make the Super Bowl in the Josh Allen era.
Along with the 2024 MVP, they have the 2025 rushing champion, James Cook, to lead their offense, but they lack a true go-to wide receiver. They also employed one of the worst run defenses in the league last season. While they statistically gave up the fewest passing yards per game last year, it was only because opposing offenses found success running the football on them.
Bills Draft Picks:
- Round 1: Pick 26
- Round 3: Pick 91
- Round 4: Pick 126
- Round 5: Pick 165
- Round 5: Pick 168
- Round 6: Pick 182
- Round 7: Pick 220
Bills Positions of Need:
Following the trade for DJ Moore, the Bills addressed a need at wide receiver while giving up this year’s second-round pick.
While the Bills added Moore, they still need another wide receiver who can separate against man coverage. Despite adding Bradley Chubb via free agency, they do need depth and youth on the defensive line.

- EDGE
- LB
Key Draft Targets for Bills
Denzel Boston – WR – Washington
Denzel Boston comes in at 6’4 and 212. He’s a receiver that thrives on contested throws. The Bills already have a quick receiver in Khalil Shakir and they need a receiver that can go downfield for developing plays.
Boston is considered a first round talent by many, so the Bills would need to target him early in the 2026 NFL draft.
Logan Fano — DE — Utah
Buffalo must get younger on the defensive line. While the scouting report says that Logan Fano has a predictable pass rush, his physical strength can hide this deficiency.
Fano is predicted to slide down draft boards in many mock drafts, so he may be available as a late round flier.
Jake Golday — LB – Cincinnati
Jake Golday played in a zone heavy scheme at Cincinnati. Buffalo has primarily played zone coverage the last few seasons so he’s a good fit to fill the depth chart should he fall past his projected second-round value.
