AFC East Report: Which draft needs do the Patriots’ division rivals have?

Draft preparation is mostly an introvert process with fans and media alike looking primarily at their own teams or at those picking just ahead of them to see if any trade-up opportunities would present themselves. However, with the big event merely two weeks away now might be a good time to look beyond the New England Patriots and at their immediate rivals in the AFC East.

What are the draft needs the Buffalo Bills, Miami Dolphins and New York Jets might try to address?

Buffalo Bills

2020 record: 13-3 (2-1 playoffs)

2021 draft picks: 1-30, 2-61, 3-93, 5-161, 5-174, 6-213, 7-236

After investing its first-round pick last year in trading for wide receiver Stefon Diggs, Buffalo is entering this year’s draft with a Day 1 selection in the fold and few needs to actually address.
