On Halloween, minutes before the trade deadline, the Buffalo Bills pulled off a blockbuster trade. In an exchange with the Carolina Panthers, the Bills received former first-round wide receiver, Kelvin Benjamin while giving up their third-round pick and a seventh-round pick they received from the Los Angeles Chargers from the Cradle Jones trade. The Bills are still set up for the long term as they have a stockpile of picks early in the 2018 NFL Draft.
