Round 1: Yetur Gross-Matos, EDGE, Penn State

Ed Oliver has been a stud for the Bills and was a steal at No. 9 overall. Next to him is Jordan Phillips, who has been a great addition as he leads the team in sacks heading into Week 15.

As good as the interior defensive tackles have been, the Bills could use some help on the edge. Shaq Lawson has improved this season but is a free agent and hasn’t been consistent enough. Jerry Hughes has had some great games in his career but at 31-years of age, his days are numbered.

With that being said, the Bills grab Yetur Gross-Matos from Penn State with their first pick. At 6-foot-5 and 264-pounds, Gross-Matos has the right build for the position and continues to develop into a strong force on the edge.

Adding his pass-rushing ability to an already impressive defense can push them over the top.

Round 2: Jalen Reagor, WR, TCU

There’s a strong case to be made for drafting a wide receiver in the first round. That’s a position Buffalo can really use but the problem is where they’ll be drafting. Taking a wideout in the later portions of the first round is hit and miss, which is why they went with an edge rusher in this draft and then go back for a receiver in the second.

Here, they land Jalen Reagor from TCU, but he’s no consolation prize. Reagor has been a great route runner for TCU and has 2,248 yards and 22 touchdowns in three seasons.

The Bills would surely like to add a larger wideout to help Cole Beasley and John Brown, but there’s no reason to skip on this kid just for the sake of drafting someone taller.
