With all eyes on him after the dismissal of Sean McDermott, Beane worked out numerous trades throughout the draft. In the end, the Bills made 10 picks and Beane showed how much he covets Day 3 selections. It appears that's still a staple of his, but several of those picks have worked out in the past such as linebacker Matt Milano and wide receiver Gabe Davis.
