Final Bills Draft Thoughts, Scenarios & Predictions

Final Bills Draft Thoughts, Scenarios & Predictions

Author: Blue Wire April 24, 2025 Duration: 47:36

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran offers his final Buffalo Bills team and draft thoughts, scenarios and predictions for Buffalo and around the league just hours before the start of the 2025 NFL Draft.

There's always so much to chew on and digest in the wanning moments before the draft and this year is certainly not exception. Among other topics, Patrick has thoughts on what bringing Tre White means and how it may connect to the draft as well the next few days potentially serving as a form of indication on how the team is feeling about 2024 second-round wide receiver Keon Coleman, who flashed but was also highly consistent as a rookie.

Also, safety is a position being highly discussed and picked for the Bills early in mock drafts by many national media folk, including Malaki Starts going to Buffalo in Benjamin Albright's mock draft. Patrick wonders if the safety talk is just that---all talk.

Additionally, several Notre Dame players that Patrick feels like really good fits for the Bills right for now are mentioned, as well as non-first round guys he really likes and doesn't and who his top five most likely Bills first overall picks are as things stand.

That plus Patrick breezes through his one and only seven round Bills mock draft that includes not one, not two but three trade ups and more.

Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red’s at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium. We consider them THE most underrated spot for wings, pizza and other great food in Western New York plus it’s a great place to drink and have a great time.
