What are the Bills' top-three needs ahead of the 2025 NFL draft?

The 2025 NFL draft has arrived and every team has needs to address… the Buffalo Bills included.

Over the next three days in Green Bay, the Bills and general manager Brandon Beane will hope to address those. Heading into the draft, Buffalo holds 10 total selections including No. 30 overall. That could change.

Of those needs, what are the top ones?

Here are the Bills’ top-three needs ahead of the 2025 draft:

Defensive tackle

While Ed Oliver owns the middle of the defensive line in Buffalo, he needs a long-term running mate. DaQuan Jones currently holds the role next to him, but he’s 33. A player with a similar profile to Jones is going to be taken at some point, could the Bills make that happen in Round 1?

Cornerback

Everyone is happy to see fan favorite Tre’Davious White back, but after a few injury-riddled seasons, it’s hard to imagine him being a top player. Hopefully he is, but that won’t stop the Bills from trying to find a player to start across from Christian Benford for the foreseeable future since White is a veteran anyway.

Wide receiver

Quarterback Josh Allen does a lot… he can’t do it alone. The Bills have Keon Coleman, recently signed Josh Palmer, and a few options… but no one who screams No. 1…. just yet. That could come via this year’s draft if it’s not one of those current players on the roster.
