Bills stockpile picks while moving out of first round in NFL Draft

  • On Thursday night, Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane completed three trades, moving the team entirely out of the first round of the NFL Draft to stockpile additional selections.
  • Beane has frequently employed this strategy to accumulate draft capital, having traded back in the first round twice within the past three years to secure more picks.
  • The organization moved down from the 26th overall pick by trading with the Houston Texans, New England Patriots, and Tennessee Titans, ultimately adding mid-round depth across multiple rounds.
  • Buffalo now holds nine selections including four among the top 125 picks, with the team's next selection scheduled for the second round on Friday at 7 p.m.
  • With new offensive coordinator Joe Brady and a defensive switch to a 3-4 scheme, Beane faces pressure to deliver after investing in receiver DJ Moore last month.
