Buffalo Bills NFL Draft picks 2024: Grades, fits and scouting reports

10 days ago

The Buffalo Bills opened the 2024 NFL Draft by trading out of Thursday’s first round.

They moved back in a deal to acquire picks No. 32 (Round 1), No. 95 (Round 3) and No. 221 (Round 7) from the Kansas City Chiefs in exchange for picks No. 28 (Round 1), No. 133 (Round 4) and No. 248 (Round 7).

The Bills then traded back once more, acquiring picks No. 33 (Round 2) and No. 141 (Round 5) from the Carolina Panthers in exchange for picks No. 32 (Round 1) and 200 (Round 6).

They remain with 10 picks over the next two days.

It’s a new era in Western New York, considering the sweeping changes on both sides of the ball. Buffalo has parted ways with franchise stalwarts such as Tre’Davious White, Mitch Morse and Jordan Poyer. The team’s offseason, however, has been defined by trading star wide receiver Stefon Diggs. It’s why most expect the Bills to target a new potential No. 1 receiver for quarterback Josh Allen in this draft. That will have to wait until Friday night at least, however.
