Bills close out 2026 draft, snagging Texas A&M guard Ar'maj Reed-Adams at pick 241, a move engineered via trade with Chicago.
After three days, the 2026 NFL Draft has finally come to an end for the Buffalo Bills. With their final selection of the draft, Buffalo took Texas A&M guard Ar'maj Reed-Adams with pick 241.
The pick was acquired in a trade with the Chicago Bears.
Reed-Adams spent the last two seasons with Texas A&M after starting out at Kansas. He's a big body at 6-6, 314 pounds, and provides the Bills with extra depth at a position they always like to keep options at.

He shows genuine strength when he has to drive defensive linemen, and plays with an aggressiveness and attitude that fans are going to love. He's also been reliable from an availability standpoint, playing in 55 games and over 2,400 offensive snaps.
That said, there's a reason he fell to the seventh round. Over six college seasons, he was penalized 31 times, and he struggles to reach the second level on blocks. He also has question marks regarding pass protection, and has gotten beaten against the faster, smaller defensive linemen.
"Reed-Adams has slower feet and will play out of control at times, which leads to him being off-balance," his Scouts Inc. profile reads. "He also has a habit of playing high, so he ends up on the ground more often than normal. Overall, Reed-Adams lacks the athletic traits for a starting NFL guard, but his size gives him value as a depth/backup option."
He's going to have to work hard to make the 53-man roster as a rookie, but could end up as a nice development project on the practice squad this season.
The Bills ended the 2026 NFL Draft with 10 selections after starting with just seven. When it comes to trades, general manager Brandon Beane made seven trades over the weekend, and only made one selection that originally belonged to the Bills.
