According to a new report, the Buffalo Bills have been receiving trade calls about potentially moving back from pick 35 in the second round of the 2026 NFL Draft.
The Buffalo Bills might not be done making moves at the 2026 NFL Draft. At least, that's according to one report.
On Friday morning, NFL insider Jordan Schultz posted on Twitter that the Bills were one of three teams receiving trade calls ahead of the start of Day 2 of the draft. The other two teams, he said, were the San Francisco 49ers and Arizona Cardinals.
All three teams hold top picks in the second round, with Buffalo holding 35th overall or third in the round.
If you remember, the Bills made three trades on Thursday night, ultimately backing out of the first round entirely. The moves by general manager Brandon Beane gave Buffalo three picks in the first 101 selections, and five in the first 126. They entered the draft with just two in the first 125.
As far as why the Bills could want to trade back, it's all about who they value in the draft.
It was clear that they didn't like anyone as a first-round pick by the time they were on the clock at 26, and then 28, and then 31. So, they instead moved back and shuffled around to get better value for their picks.
While it's possible that they like someone at the 35th spot, the idea of moving back, possibly as little as few as three or four picks, could make the value of the player they like even better.
Whether it's trading back from 35 or deals elsewhere, it feels like Beane and the Bills aren't done moving around the draft board. There's even speculation that the team could keep 35, and then package some of their fourth-round picks to move back into the 2nd or third round to draft another player they like.
No question that Day 2 is going to be an interesting night at One Bills Drive in Orchard Park.
