The Buffalo Bills Shouldn’t Draft A Wide Receiver Tonight

Tonight is the night that much of the Bills Mafia has been waiting for, it is the NFL Draft.

Most armchair quarterbacks along with many NFL insiders are predicting the Buffalo Bills will draft a wide receiver in the 1st round.

Some experts think the Bills will trade up from the 28th spot to try and draft one of the "Big 3" wide receivers in the draft.

Some experts think the Bills will move down or even out of the 1st round and take a wide receiver on Day 2 of the draft.

The move down might be the best way to go for the Bills, at least according to new data that was shared by ESPN insider Adam Schefter.

He posted this on "X" and it shows that the one position in the NFL with the most "busts" or players that didn't work live up to their draft position is wide receiver.

The last wide receiver the team drafted in the 1st round was Sammy Watkins in 2014. He only played in Buffalo for two seasons before getting traded to the La Rams.

Before Watkins, Lee Evans was drafted in 2004, and before him was Eric Moulds in 1996. Evan was really good for the Bills and Moulds was a star. Moulds is 2nd in career receiving yards and Evans is 3rd.

Let's hope if the Bills do go and draft a wide receiver in the 1st round they draft an Eric Moulds type and not a Sammy Watkins type.
