The better you are as a team, the lower your draft pick is.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5i\">Brandon Beane has faced a lot of heavy criticism with the way that the Bills have been built up through the draft. It will be his first time drafting for the Bills without Sean McDermott in the room, so the direction that he goes in will be interesting because the Bills have a <a href=\"https:\/\/buffalowdown.com\/latest-dexter-lawrence-news-should-have-bills-calling-giants-immediately-01kp8fss947r\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">great amount of needs<\/a> to take care of.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5l\">Wide receiver has been mentioned for two years now, but the acquisition of <a href=\"https:\/\/buffalowdown.com\/bills-can-elevate-passing-attack-by-pairing-d-j-moore-with-right-draft-fit-01kp6g8sb602\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">D.J. Moore<\/a> took care of giving Josh Allen a go-to receiver on the outside. However, that position is not close to being done yet. Going into the draft, one receiver that the Bills most likely will miss out on simply because he is the best one in the class is Carnell Tate.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5o\">Another top wide receiver prospect is Jordyn Tyson, who is very dynamic with the ball in his hands, is in the first tier of receivers coming out of college. However, with his injury history in college involving his lower leg, there could be a chance that he just may slip down the board and the Bills may actually have the chance to bring him to Western New York if they wanted to.<\/p>\n<p>NFL Draft prediction has Jordyn Tyson falling out of Top-20 in first round<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5u\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/nfl\/draft\/news\/2026-nfl-draft-bold-predictions-round-1\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">JP Acosta from CBS Sports<\/a> put together a list of 10 bold predictions that could happen in this year\u2019s draft, with one of them being Tyson falling out of the Top 20, despite being a Top 10 talent overall.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5x\">&#8220;On the field, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/college-football\/players\/28900885\/jordyn-tyson\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jordyn Tyson<\/a> is one of the most talented players in this class. The fluidity he runs his routes with, combined with his body control in the air, is reminiscent of basketball players, let alone top NFL receivers.\u00a0However, Tyson comes with. His injury history is scary \u2014 a nagging hamstring injury from the 2025 season has kept him out of any pre-draft workouts, and he also has a torn ACL, MCL and PCL on his injury docket. Not great.&#8221; said Acosta.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"60\">There\u2019s no denying that Tyson is a fantastic route runner and that he can do some damage with the ball in his hands. At the same time, his injury history is beyond concerning which could scare off a great amount of teams.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"63\">If he does indeed fall down the board into the range of where Buffalo could get him, Beane will have to make a tough decision on whether or not he wants a huge high risk\/high reward setup with Tyson.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-blue my-f-1\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"66\">The Bills can\u2019t trade up high because they have limited draft capital (no second round pick), but if Tyson does fall into the 20s, they could very well make a trade up if they feel that he can provide more value and overcome an injury history.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.minutemediacdn.com\/platform\/google_discover_icon.svg\" class=\"shrink-0\"\/>Add us as a preferred source on Google<a aria-label=\"Follow buffalowdown.com on Google News\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=buffalowdown.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" class=\"flex h-[30px] w-[30px] shrink-0 items-center justify-center rounded-full bg-primary font-group-large text-sm font-medium text-white transition-colors hover:bg-secondary focus:bg-secondary md:w-auto md:gap-2.5 md:px-4 md:py-[5px]\">Follow<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Buffalo Bills are one of the top contending teams in the NFL, and it shows when the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":867820,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2048],"tags":[215,214,53,2086,7,6],"class_list":{"0":"post-867819","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\/116415452682604742","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/867819","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=867819"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/867819\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/867820"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=867819"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=867819"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=867819"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
