The Buffalo Bills will enter the 2023 season as legitimate Super Bowl contenders.
But they're still looking to improve their roster to solidify their chances.
And one way to do that will be through the 2023 NFL Draft.
ESPN's Matt Miller noted on Friday that he's hearing from sources around the league that Buffalo has their eyes on moving up in the draft.
Miller thinks the Bills could move up for an interior offensive lineman or a skill position player.
From ESPN: The Buffalo Bills are another AFC title contender with eyes on moving up, based on what I've heard from sources around the league. The Bills will play the board and see who is falling, but with the No. 27 selection, it's very possible general manager Brandon Beane gets anxious and moves up for an interior offensive lineman or offensive skill player. That said, Buffalo has six total selections in this draft, so trading up very far wouldn't be possible without mortgaging future draft classes.
It's tough to predict late first round trades because they typically depend on how the first round plays out.
But it sounds like the Bills won't hesitate to pull the trigger on a deal if there's a player they like that's still hanging around in the latter half of the first round.
Texas running back Bijan Robinson is a player that's been mocked to the Bills numerous times over the last few weeks.
That could be the steal of the draft even with running backs becoming increasingly devalued in the NFL.
An AFC executive told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler that Robinson might be the best player in the entire draft.
The Bills could get a superstar late in the first round. And it sounds like it would be worth it to trade up a couple of spots to land the former Longhorns standout.
