Buffalo BillsNFL Draft
With the 2026 NFL Draft nearly here, the staff at Bills Wire has put together our final predictions for the event in a mock.
Our mock predictions are for the Buffalo' picks that are in the first two days of this year's draft. On those days, we'll see Rounds 1-3 unfold and in that area the Bills have two selections at Nos. 26 and 91.
Making mock projections for each of those picks will be Bills Wire editor Nick Wojton and contributing writer Justin DiLoro.
Bills Wire's full final 2026 mock draft can be found below:
Round 1, pick No. 26
Ohio State Buckeyes defensive end Caden Curry (92) and defensive tackle Kayden McDonald (98) celebrate behidn Purdue Boilermakers quarterback Ryan Browne (15) during the NCAA football game at Ross-Ade Stadium in West Lafayette, Ind. on Nov. 8, 2025.
Wojton's pick: ED Cashius Howell, Texas Tech.
Howell was the SEC Defensive Player of the Year and put up numbers to earn it. He had 11.5 sacks and 14 tackles for loss in 13 games played last season in 2025. Howell's stock isn't higher because of measurables, specifically arm length. Buffalo general manager Brandon Beane might like to trade back here but if Howell is there, Beane has not been shy about taking a bit of a project pass rusher early on at the draft.
DiLoro's pick: DT Kayden McDonald, Ohio State.
If there's any way that KC Concepcion makes it No 26, he's the pick. However, too many simulations have him being taken earlier in the round, and I think the lack of draft capital makes it a bit challenging for the Bills to move up in the draft. In addition, the Bills traded a second-round pick for veteran wideout , so selecting a wide receiver here would feel like Buffalo dedicated their first two draft picks to the wide receiver position.
