The Buffalo Bills were determined to improve their defense during the 2025 NFL draft. While they kicked things off with a cornerback, taking Maxwell Hairston from Kentucky in Round 1, they quickly turned their attention to the defensive line for their next three picks.

The Bills biggest mistake in the 2025 NFL Draft was that Brandon Beane can't stp trading up even though it's proven ineffective.

His Bills roster had circled Kentucky defensive tackle Deone Walker with their pick in the fourth round. With a tackle-needy Jets also needing a player, though, the Bills would have to make a trade-up to acquire the 6-7, 344-pound phenom.
