Before we can move beyond talking about what the Buffalo Bills did this past weekend during the 2026 NFL Draft, we should take a few minutes to revisit the collective grade handed out by Buffalo Rumblings readers via our latest Reacts poll. Many find grading a rookie class mere hours or days after the selection […]
The Buffalo Bills picked Clemson EDGE T.J. Parker with 35th pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, after three trade backs moved them completely out of the first round for the second time in three years. As a massive draft nerd and longtime draft analyst that even pre-dates by past job dedicated to the NFL Draft […]
We’re belaboring it at this point, but that doesn’t diminish its importance. Sean McDermott’s defense was a problem in the playoffs and some part (small or large) of why the Bills did not reach a Super Bowl in any of the last six seasons despite otherwise massive success. After the 2026 NFL Draft, Ty Dunne […]
As the dust settled on the 2026 NFL Draft, Jordan Schultz reported the Bills invited an intriguing wide receiver to their rookie minicamp, former third-round Bengals draft pick Jermaine Burton. While I can’t claim to be the conductor of The WR Train — that would be WGR550’s Jeremy White, of course — my ears always […]
Now that the actual NFL Draft has come and gone, let’s take one more look back at our predictions for how it would go down. For the purposes of this exercise, a correct draft position prediction for a player (within one spot) is worth one point, a correct team-player combo prediction is worth three points, […]
President of football operations/general manager Brandon Beane added 10 draft picks to the Buffalo Bills’ roster over the weekend. And while there are places on the final 53-man roster and practice squad available for the edge rusher, wide receiver, linebacker, defensive tackle, guard, safety, offensive tackle, defensive tackle, and two cornerbacks the Bills selected, roster […]
Monday after the 2026 NFL Draft, during his interview on WGR, Buffalo Bills president of football operations/general manager Brandon Beane all but officially shut the door on Keon Coleman playing for another team this season. Crazier heel-turns have occurred in the NFL — in fact, they happen often — but the below statements from Beane […]
The Buffalo Bills, in the midst of a transition to a 3-4 defense under new defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard, seem to have a large need at the nose tackle position. According to president of football operations/general manager Brandon Beane, however, that spot is going to be filled by second-year defensive tackle Deone Walker. Appearing on […]
The 2026 NFL Draft saw a robust trade market. Over the course of 257 selections, there were 41 distinct trades made, or nearly six per round. In fact, 112 different 2026 selections were moved at some point, or nearly 44% of the draft (and that excludes picks that had been traded prior to the start […]
The Las Vegas Raiders swung a trade for Buffalo Bills cornerback Taron Johnson around the start of the NFL league year. That trade wrapped up at the 2026 NFL Draft, so let’s take a look at the haul for both teams. Original trade terms for the Taron Johnson trade between the Bills and Raiders What […]
The Buffalo Bills took a cornerback in the second round of the 2026 NFL Draft. They wouldn’t have had to do that if their first-round pick from a few years ago worked out. But Kaiir Elam didn’t, and he was traded to the Dallas Cowboys. The trade for Elam wrapped up at the 2026 NFL […]
The Buffalo Bills made their final pick in the 2026 NFL Draft with Texas A&M interior offensive lineman Ar’maj Reed-Adams coming off the board. Reed-Adams is a massive human being with excellent arm length. He’s a player that is a very strong run blocker and can really move bodies in that aspect. He’s gotten a […]
The Bills officially have a new punter to compete in training camp after selecting Tommy Doman Jr. out of Florida. It was a highly anticipated prediction that the team would look to add a punter late in the 2026 NFL Draft, and they successfully got one of the best options in the class. Doman is […]
Another selection for the Buffalo Bills and another player with a trump card trait. The selection of Toriano Pride Jr. is another call to their willingness to continue adding speed to Buffalo’s defensive back room. It may be a seventh-round pick, but the Bills were in desperate need of cornerback depth. They’ve found that in […]
The Chicago Bears have sent both their seventh-round picks (239 and 241) to the Buffalo Bills for pick number 213 in the sixth round, and they finally took a defensive lineman. Jordan van den Berg, defensive tackle from Georgia Tech, is a sixth-year senior who started his college career at Iowa Western Community College in 2020, then […]
Chicago moved up to the end of the sixth round by sending both #239 and #241 to the Buffalo Bills in exchange for pick #213. This trade showed once again that the last day of the 2026 NFL Draft isn’t going to follow conventional wisdom, but it could just mean that Brandon Beane continues not […]
The Buffalo Bills selected a traits-based wide receiver at 125 in Skyler Bell and immediately followed it up with a similar mold at linebacker at pick 126 with linebacker Kaleb Elarms-Orr out of TCU. He didn’t start playing football until high school and was transitioned into a full-time linebacker at Cal in 2023 where he […]
The Miami Dolphins could have done better with their early WR selection, but the Bills made the most of their opportunity.
The Buffalo Bills are leaning heavily into athletic traits on Day 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft. UConn receiver Skyler Bell is the pick for the Bills at 125th overall, and he’s a very dynamic athlete. Bell has a ton of college production and is very explosive with the ball in his hands. He was […]
Leveraging yet another trade back, this time one spot south to pick 102 instead staying put in the opening slot, the Buffalo Bills add offensive tackle Jude Bowry out of Boston College early in Round 4 of the 2026 NFL Draft. A four player at offensive tackle who logged 31 games in 23 starts for […]
The Las Vegas Raiders have drafted talented but injured Tennessee star cornerback Jermod McCoy with the first pick in the fourth round of the draft Saturday. The Raiders traded up from No. 102 to No. 101 in a trade with the Buffalo Bills. The Raiders sent a seventh-round pick in 2027 to complete the trade. […]
The Bills selected two players on day two of the 2026 NFL Draft. Both picks ended up being in the second round with the picks of Clemson edge rusher T.J. Parker and Ohio State cornerback Davison Igbinosun. Plenty more players of fair value remain on the board, and the Bills will be able to get […]
The second day of the 2026 NFL Draft represented the first real action for the Buffalo Bills in the annual selection process. After trading down three separate times to eventually land out of Round 1 to stop at pick three overall in Round 2, the Bills sent Shane Conlan with a card to the podium. […]
After trading back three times until the team was out of the first round, president of football operations/general manager Brandon Beane made two picks for the Buffalo Bills during Friday night’s portion of the NFL Draft. First, the Bills selected Clemson edge rusher T.J. Parker with pick No. 35 in the second round, then Beane […]
The Buffalo Bills moved up four spots, from pick 66 overall (Round 3) to pick 62 (Round 2), in order to select cornerback Davison Igbinosun. The three-year starter at Ohio State brings plenty of experience and healthy dose of physicality as a press-man cover corner. We also learned after Igbinosun was selected that he was […]
