Defensive Interior. 6th. . player. R6 - Zion Logue. Zion Logue. 527. Zion Logue. Georgia Bulldogs.

Zion Logue is a 6'5", 310-pound defensive tackle from Georgia. He recorded only two sacks throughout his collegiate career; however, pass-rushing is not his game. Run defense is Logue's forte and would provide solid depth in the middle of the Bills defensive line and be an asset in their rotation.

Frank Gore Jr.. Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles. . player. 2278. R6 - Frank Gore Jr. . Running Back. Frank Gore Jr.. 6th

Frank Gore Jr. could be the Bills' number two back, depending on what happens with the Bills pending free agent backs, Ty Johnson, Latavious Murray, and Damien Harris. The team still has Nyheim Hines under contract but if the team chooses to release Hines, they could save nearly $5 million on the cap in 2024. In Gore's final season with the Golden Eagles, he totaled an impressive 1,119 yards, 4.9 yards per carry, and ten touchdowns. He also added 27 receptions for 224 yards.

R6 - Bru McCoy. . Bru McCoy. Bru McCoy. Wide Receiver. 6th. Tennessee Volunteers. player. 534.

Bru McCoy is a 6'3", 220-pound wide receiver. Pairing him and Troy Franklin in this draft adds size to a smallish receiver corps and is something the Bills certainly need. Coming out of high school, he was one of the highest-rated recruits in the country. He played in only 22 games, including only five games last season. Not only does he have excellent size but he has a reported 40-time of 4.46. With his limited experience but physical traits, he could be a diamond in the rough in a couple of seasons.

. . 7th. player. R7 - Trevin Wallace. Trevin Wallace. Trevin Wallace. Linebacker. Kentucky Wildcats. 528

Trevin Wallace is projected as a seventh-rounder by some sites but it's possible he could go undrafted and sign as an undrafted rookie. He's 6'2" and weighs 241 pounds. In 2023, Wallace recorded 80 total tackles and 5.5 sacks. The Bills aren't necessarily in need at the linebacker position, but it doesn't hurt to add some depth to a position that was decimated by injuries last season.
