However, nothing is guaranteed until Roger Goodell announces the pick. Over the history of the NFL, we have seen some of the most <a href=\"https:\/\/buffalowdown.com\/3-scenarios-bills-fans-must-hope-does-not-happen-in-2026-nfl-draft-01kn65gr9kdj\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">shocking moves<\/a> happen in the draft.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5i\">When it comes to the Buffalo Bills, they have made some decisions that have left fans excited, upset, and confused. Even back in 2018 when it was the worst-kept secret that the Bills were going for a quarterback, when they traded up from No. 12 to No. 7 to draft Josh Allen, there were a ton of people upset with the pick. Now, it\u2019s clear that they made the best pick out of any team from that draft.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5l\">We have also seen some of the top prospects coming out of college drop lower than expected. Some fall to the later picks of the first round, while others have dropped out of the first round completely (all for various reasons). One of those players that could be in a similar situation is Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5o\">In an NFL mock draft that was put together by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/nick-shook-2026-nfl-mock-draft-1-0-jets-bills-load-up-at-wr-cardinals-jump-on-rb\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nick Shook from NFL.com<\/a>, Tyson falls down to the Bills at No. 26 which would be an absolute steal for Buffalo (but it would also be a big time risk).<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5r\">&#8220;It might be stunning to see Tyson fall this far down the first-round board, but he does have a concerning injury history. He also has the kind of big-play capability the Bills have lacked since they traded\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/players\/stefon-diggs\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Stefon Diggs<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\u00a0to Houston, so they end Tyson&#8217;s slide here, even after\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/bears-trading-wr-dj-moore-to-bills-for-mid-round-draft-pick\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">acquiring\u00a0\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeffDJ Moore<\/a>, who will not solve their issues at receiver alone.&#8221; said Shook.<\/p>\n<p>NFL mock draft has Jordyn Tyson dropping to No. 26 to Bills (which would be shocking)<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5x\">Tyson has been very productive the last two seasons at Arizona State that has included <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/college-football\/player\/stats\/_\/id\/4880281\/jordyn-tyson\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">18 total receiving touchdowns<\/a> during that span. He also had 1,812 yards, but there are some injury concerns with him.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"60\">Tyson can line up at any wide receiver spot on the field and he is a great route runner as well. However, he has dealt with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/prospects\/jordyn-tyson\/32005459-5340-5541-5aaa-55c5f682cacc\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">various injuries<\/a> that included his knee, collarbone, and hamstrings.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"63\">Having an injury history like this before even playing a snap in the NFL is very concerning, but you could make the argument that the pros outweigh the cons of drafting Tyson. Both he and Carnell Tate are the top wide receivers in this draft class, and it would be very shocking to see either of them fall to Buffalo\u2019s range in the 20s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Every year leading up to the NFL Draft, fans tend to have an understanding of how the first&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":854010,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2048],"tags":[215,214,53,2086,7,6],"class_list":{"0":"post-854009","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-buffalo-bills","8":"tag-bills","9":"tag-buffalo","10":"tag-buffalo-bills","11":"tag-buffalobills","12":"tag-football","13":"tag-nfl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116348683096450532","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/854009","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=854009"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/854009\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/854010"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=854009"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=854009"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=854009"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
