Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills find answer to their biggest flaw keeping them from Super Bowl run in latest 2026 NFL mock draft
Latest 2026 NFL mock draft aims to put the Buffalo Bills over the top. The defense was the main area of concern to fill.
The Buffalo Bills are very much in the middle of a winning window under elite quarterback Josh Allen. Head coach Sean McDermott and his staff have put together a good team without many holes on the roster. As is the case with every team, especially in this age of parity in the NFL, there are always going to be some holes to fill.
For the Bills, the biggest holes remain in their secondary. This team could be just a couple of impact players away from finally getting over the top to win a championship. Here is a 7-round 2026 NFL mock draft, and the haul that could get them there.
Round 1, Pick 25: Kamari Ramsey, S, USC
This may feel early for some, but Ramsey is one of the more underrated defenders in the entire 2026 NFL Draft class. The Bills have too many of the same type of safeties right now like Taylor Rapp and Cole Bishop, downhill safeties that don’t make enough plays working from depth. Ramsey provides impact upside on the back end and the versatility to mix and match well with the current safety room.
Round 2, Pick 60: Will Lee, CB, Texas A&M
If you like big physical press cornerbacks, then you will love Lee. He has the length, physicality, and competitiveness to play early on if needed. While his long speed is just average for NFL standards, his change of direction is notable for a cornerback of his length. Lee should fit in nicely in a cornerback room that needs more outside options besides Christian Benford.
Round 3, Pick 91: Darrell Jackson Jr., DT, Florida State
When Jackson is locked in and consistent from a technical perspective, he is a really good football player. He is massive at around 6-5 and 340 pounds with good length and power. This is a starting nose tackle on the next level, but there is still a question about just how good he ends up being. At this spot, however, that gamble is worth taking.
Round 4, Pick 126: Trey Moore, EDGE, Texas
A former UTSA standout, Moore isn’t flashy, but he does a lot of things very well. As a pass rusher, he has a good first step, some natural bend, and a good overall plan. Moore has also played on the second level for the Longhorns a bit, bringing versatility as a key role player, even if he is a bit of a tweener.
Round 5, Pick 165: Blake Miller, OT, Clemson
When you watch Miller, he is easily one of the more athletic offensive tackles in the 2026 class, but he has just never been able to put it fully together at Clemson. That foot quickness, along with his length, is a tremendous asset for development. Miller is going to have to improve his core strength and get more technically refined if he has a chance to play meaningful snaps down the road.
Round 7, Pick 220: Malachi Fields, WR, Notre Dame
At around 6-4 and 220 pounds, Fields is a big-bodied boundary receiver that does nice work at the catch point. He is also a smart route runner, although he isn’t the most dynamic athlete of all time. There are real limitations with Fields’ game, but you can’t teach size and physicality, which should help him to stick on special teams.
Round 7, Pick 230: Bryce Boettcher, LB, Oregon
A former draft selection by the Houston Astros as an outfielder, Boettcher has shown tremendous growth as a football player over the last two seasons. He is a modern linebacker with range to make plays all over the field. Boettcher’s safety background shows up in his play, which should be valuable for special teams as he continues to get stronger and process faster.
