The Buffalo Bills are slated to pick No. 30 overall in the 2021 NFL Draft. This will be the latest pick in the first round for the Bills in franchise history—if the team stays in its original spot, that is. In the three years where general manager Brandon Beane has run the Bills’ draft, Buffalo has made three picks in the first round, and only one of those choices came at the slot where Buffalo began. That was the 2019 NFL Draft, where the Bills selected Houston defensive tackle Ed Oliver ninth overall.
At the 30th spot in the first round, the Bills will be able to find a talented player, but recent history suggests that there’s a wide range of outcomes with this choice.
