In the draft, the Bills focused on defense, selecting CB Max Hairston (first round), DT TJ Sanders (second), Edge Landon Jackson (third), DT Deone Walker (fourth), CB Jordan Hancock (fifth), TE Jackson Hawes (fifth) and cornerback Dorian Strong (sixth ).

The wide receiver position continues to be a hot-button conversation among fans of the Buffalo Bills, especially after the team failed to make a significant investment in the position during the 2025 NFL Draft.

Is Beane's argument about the receiver position fair? In a way, it totally is. Buffalo has a strong trio of receivers in Khalil Shakir, Joshua Palmer, and Keon Coleman. With an MVP quarterback in Josh Allen leading the way, the Bills offense doesn't need another receiver.

Brandon Beane built his defense in the NFL Draft and went on a sports talk show and ripped the hosts for "b----ing" about his strategy.
