The Buffalo Bills entered the 2018 NFL Draft with wide receiver as a position that could have used an upgrade.
From Kelvin Benjamin being on the last year of his deal to Zay Jones having some off-the-field issues, the position group is not among the strongest on the team. That is why it became surprising when Brandon Beane continually passed on receivers until the team’s final two picks.
The Bills ended up taking Ray-Ray McCloud of Clemson in the sixth round and Austin Proehl of North Carolina in the seventh round. So on paper the team did take two receivers, but not two that figure to be key pieces on offense in 2018.
