‘Cornerback is a position of need for the Bills, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll address the position in the first round. The team addressing openings in free agency, leaving limited significant needs, but cornerback is the position left with the most work do.’

Speedy cornerback Maxwell Hairston tells NFL to 'get your popcorn ready'
‘The Michigan native was a two-year starter at Kentucky, and now he’s a popular mock-draft selection for the Buffalo Bills at pick No. 30. The Bills are in need of a cornerback to start opposite Christian Benford, and Hairston has a number of the traits they are looking for in a rookie corner.’
Bills, Sabres executive Pete Guelli looks back on 'incredibly rewarding' first year with clubs
‘“He’s not a micromanager, and he’s not looking to tell you what to do, but we make incredibly important and impact decisions every day that Terry needs to have line of sight into,” said Guelli, who talks with Pegula multiple times per week. “From that standpoint, it’s been the perfect balance. He is available literally anytime I need him. Once we talk and have a direction, he’s just, ‘Go.’ I’ve really enjoyed working for him. The two most important aspects of any owner are commitment and resources, and he has plenty of commitment and allows us to apply the resources to do our jobs at a high level.”’
Six keys to the Bills acing the NFL draft, starting with a clear focus in the first round
‘This year, the Bills have two clear-cut needs: Defensive tackle and cornerback, and unless there’s a player at one of those positions who the Bills absolutely love, and the only way to make sure they get him is to trade up, they should probably stay put at No. 30 and pick the best tackle or corner available.’
Bills Draft Day Decisions: Offensive backfield
‘This is an intriguing position to track when it comes to the Bills 2025 draft strategy. At face value, in would not appear as if Buffalo would be in the market for a running back. But with James Cook pleading his case on social media as he pursues a lucrative contract extension, the Bills have to start thinking about what life would look like if they were unable to retain Cook when his contract runs out at the end of the season.’
Options won't be scarce when the Bills hit the clock with the 30th pick
‘There were no offseason roster purges and they didn’t have to watch any of their prized free agents walk away with a contract out of their price range. Yes, the Bills could use an upgrade at certain positions, but cornerback is the only starting spot left unfilled going into the draft.’
Cornerbacks & defensive tackles the Buffalo Bills should target in the 2025 NFL Draft
‘Reid says the Bills are fortunate because the positions they will likely address early in the draft have a lot of depth. Especially at both cornerback and on the defensive line. So if the Bills don’t trade up in the first round like they did in 2022 (Kaiir Elam) and 2023 (Dalton Kincaid), they should still be in a good spot.’

He relies on a motorized chair, so his family is hosting a fundraiser on May 3 to help him get a chair that he can travel on a plane with.’

Donovan Ezeiruaku's speed would add to Bills' pass-rush arsenal
‘Ezeiruaku, 21, could be a consideration for the Buffalo Bills late in the first round of the draft. Edge rusher is just behind cornerback on the Bills’ needs list, but Buffalo’s playoff exits the past five years have shown they need as much pass rush as they can get against the best competition.’
Critical time ahead for reaching Bills stadium post-construction goals
‘“We are moving forward with our plan to ensure that we put every effort that’s commercially possible to reach those goals,” Penny Semaia, vice president of stadium relations for the Bills, said at Monday’s meeting of the Community Benefits Oversight Committee.’
Second round could be sweet spot for Bills to draft a WR: 6 potential targets
‘With two picks at Nos. 56 and 62, and a general manager in Brandon Beane who is always open to trading his way up or down the draft board, the Bills – even with their primary needs on defense – could be a team to watch when the second round gets underway, especially if a run at the position starts to develop.’

‘When reviewing the Bills’ remaining needs this offseason, a few obvious answers come to mind, particularly cornerback, defensive line and wide receiver. But other positions, such as safety and running back could also be up for consideration early on in the selection process.’
Canadian QB Taylor Elgersma hoping Buffalo pro day springboards him to NFL draft
‘The quarterback was throwing in front of a slew of NFL scouts and every CFL team at the University at Buffalo’s pro day on March 13, having just a quick session the previous day to meet his receivers for the day.’
Bills Community Benefits Oversight Committee passes resolution to address community vulnerabilities
‘”This goes back to a number of weeks and months even, where our smaller group got together. We researched a lot of the information on what’s impacting our region, as well as dialog amongst other practitioners on what really is a highlight. The public hearing that we had as well really focused on the youth. So we wanted to make sure that we were able to pass a resolution today making sure that’s a part of our CBA for this upcoming fiscal year,” stated Semaia.’
Public transportation hub could be developed for new Bills stadium
‘Another priority of the committee mentioned: a transportation hub for the stadium. They say they’ve been working alongside the NFTA about this hub, and hope to have a public forum this summer to have it ready by next summer. They have not announced a date for this meeting at this time.’
