‘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.’
Brasky: Beane, Bills front office must find rapid return on 2025 draft investment — get your popcorn ready
‘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.’

NFL draft preview: Off-ball linebacker remains a low-priority position
‘The Buffalo Bills are lucky to have two do-everything linebackers in Matt Milano and Terrel Bernard. That drastically reduces the likelihood of them drafting a player at the position early in the NFL draft later this month, but it shouldn’t be ruled out entirely.’
Mock Draft 2.0: Bills fill their biggest need in the secondary
’30. Buffalo Bills. Maxwell Hairston, CB, Kentucky. Our first mock draft of the season had the Bills going with Michigan defensive tackle Kenneth Grant, who is still on the board here. So why the change? Depth of the defensive tackle class. The Bills should be able to address that position with one of their two second-round draft picks. The depth at cornerback isn’t as great, so grabbing Hairston here fills the team’s biggest positional need heading into the draft. Hairston has blazing speed – his 4.28-second 40-yard dash was the fastest time at the NFL scouting combine – and good production, with six interceptions over the past two seasons. Hairston did have a shoulder injury that limited him to just seven games in 2024, so his durability at 5-foot-11, 183 pounds is a concern. The Bills believe in their sports science department and also made a change at head strength coach this offseason, so they should be able to develop Hairston in that regard.’
Bills are getting a head start on new stadium's grass playing field
‘Having a natural grass playing surface is going to take significantly more effort to build and maintain, but the Bills prioritized it as NFL players push for making playing surfaces safer and more consistent.’
NFL combine's fastest WR was 'the guy' in Texas. Could the draft make him a Bill?
‘Their top two priorities in the first round should be either defensive tackle or cornerback, but if the board falls a certain way, it wouldn’t be crazy if Texas wide receiver Matthew Golden was gettable.’

The Buffalo Bills have 3 draft picks in the first 2 rounds. It's a rare opportunity to hit it big
‘What an opportunity for the Bills to add cost-controlled contributors who can ideally start right away, particularly on defense.’
NFL draft preview: It will take digging to find corner who's perfect fit for Bills
‘This year’s cornerback draft class presents an interesting challenge. There are nine or 10 cornerbacks who could land in the top 60 on some NFL teams’ boards. But not many of them could be considered A-plus tacklers.’
Bills Mailbag: Is the door closed on Amari Cooper returning?
‘The market for Cooper is speaking loudly. To this point, he has not even taken any reported visits to teams. If the Bills wanted to bring him back, they seemingly would have already done so – unless the sides were so far apart on money that it became clear no deal was going to happen. Cooper turns 31 in June and it’s fair to wonder exactly how much he’s got left. Would the Dolphins be willing to find out if they decided to move Tyreek Hill? That’s a reasonable idea. My sense is that wouldn’t scare the Bills all that much.’
NFL Draft: Buffalo Bills showing ‘a lot of interest’ in WR drawing D.K. Metcalf comparisons
‘A source tells Syracuse.com that the Bills have shown “a lot of interest” in Tennessee Volunteers wide receiver Dont’e Thornton. Leading up to the 2025 NFL Draft, the Bills have held multiple Zooms with the receiver and a private workout.’
