Buffalo Bills Mock Draft Roundup 2.0
Throughout the year and leading up to the 2025 NFL Draft, we will update our Buffalo Bills Mock Draft Roundup showing picks for the Buffalo Bills from several prominent sites and draft analysts.
The following are picks in recent mock drafts for the Bills:
30. Kenneth Grant, IDL, Michigan
I'm sure the Bills will look hard at the cornerback options, too, but they also need reinforcements up front. Grant is a massive body who can be groomed to eventually take DaQuan Jones' spot.
30. Tyleik Williams, IDL, Ohio State
Josh Allen has shown on more than one occasion that he can keep pace with Patrick Mahomes or any other quarterback, so Buffalo has to address the defensive side of the ball in the first round. Tyleik Williams allows them to be more stingy at the point of attack.
30. JT Tuimoloau, EDGE, Ohio State
The Bills' blue-collar culture makes this Ohio State product a perfect fit. JTT's a rugged edge player with upside as a pass rusher.
24. Luther Burden III, WR, Missouri
Trade! The Bills jump up to get Missouri wide receiver Luther Burden, who may be a steal at this point in the draft. The Bills could use another wide receiver to make life easier for Josh Allen and they get another quality target here.
The Athletic — Baumgardner/Dochterman
30. Jahdae Barron, CB, Texas
Barron has positional flexibility in the secondary, because of his coverage skills and hitting prowess — he could play corner, nickel or safety. He earned the Jim Thorpe Award as the nation's top defensive back and tied for the SEC lead with five interceptions. Anywhere he plays, Barron would elevate the Buffalo secondary.
30. Benjamin Morrison, CB, Notre Dame
Rasul Douglas will be a free agent in 2025, and both Christian Benford and Kaiir Elam are scheduled to become free agents next offseason. The son of a former NFL cornerback, Morrison is technically sound and sticky in coverage. A hip injury cut his junior season short, but he finished his career with nine interceptions including six as a true freshman in 2022.
30. Nic Scourton, EDGE, Texas A&M
The Bills are a team that appears likely to overhaul their pass rush unit this offseason. Von Miller may be a cap casualty, and the team could certainly upgrade over AJ Epenesa, who is on an expiring contract after 2025. Nic Scourton is a diverse talent who can play as a physical edge setter in run defense but also provide some refined pass rush ability with his array of counters. He did not explode this season as some expected after transferring into Texas A&M, but his versatility should be considered a strength and asset Buffalo could welcome on their edge.
30. Derrick Harmon, IDL, Oregon
Harmon is a very disruptive player at a deep position in this year's class. He could fill a void with Austin Johnson among the Bills defensive linemen due to hit free agency this offseason.
30. Maxwell Hairston, CB, Kentucky
Drafting another wide receiver should be considered, and the defensive line could use reinforcements. But the cornerback spot jumps out. Buffalo allowed opponent QBs to complete 68.5% of their passes, 28th in the league, and Rasul Douglas is on an expiring deal. Hairston is a pro-ready prospect. His awareness, burst to the ball and route-recognition skills are top-notch. Hairston was a little banged-up this season, as a shoulder injury limited him to seven games and one interception. But he had five picks the previous year, showing his ball skills.
