The Vikings Second which should be a high second next year. Beane has a history of trading "star" players for a draft pick and then moving up in the draft for the guy he wants. I think the Bills are probably getting one of the top 4 WRs in this draft. If I had to put money on it: Thomas Jr is the pick.
 
embarrassment of riches at WR this year

a 2nd next year is worth a 3rd this year
 
Diggs only costs the team an extra 3 million to trade him instead of playing for them, plus saves 27 mil next year. They are gonna use the high 2025 second round pick they got back as trade bait to move up in this year's draft to get their future #1 WR. I don't think they can get the top 3 but maybe with the run on QBs one can "fall". I think Thomas Jr. Is their guy and should be there in the 12-17 range.

I don’t think you need to move up that high for Thomas. Frankly I’d stay put and draft Legette or one of the other second round beast WR

When I started paying attention to the mock drafts after the season, Thomas Jr. was in the Bills 1st round range. Then it he started to go around 20-24, and now he is in the 15-17 range. I think he has a lot of Helium to him right now, but I don't think he goes before the Big 3. AD Mitchell is interesting and Worthy is fast as hell, but I think they are a good year 2 receiver while the top 4 probably hits the ground running. There is great depth though, so I could see the Bills doubling up.

As a fins fan I pray they do something like trade up or draft Mitchell who reeks of Devontae Parker

Quality WR`s will be there in the 2nd to third+ round as well

Every year a Puka Nacua out of nowhere emerges
 
Puka was a bit of an anomaly…. but yeah this year has a deep wideout class so some studs will be avail on day 2 of the draft

This year more than ever there is first round WR talent that will go in 2/3

Xavier Legette
Xavier Worthy
Ladd McConkey
Roman Wilson
Troy Franklin
Ricky Prarsall

I would make the reach at 21 for Miami to draft Legette unless Byron Murphy or Johnnie Newton are there

I’m pretty sure the Steelers would LOVE Legette at 20 if it weren’t for the potential RT of the future or even C possibly still being on the board.

Yup, OL is almost as deep as WR this year, and there has never been more of a Steeler player IMO than Jackson Powers Johnson.

I'd love Troy Fanatau, Amarius Mims or Graham Barton for Miami at 21, but i suspect the former is gone, and i have heard that Miami is a team that has soured on taking rookie OL in general, finding they dont hit their strides well into their rookie contract ( if at all) before they need to be paid, and prefer taking on veteran OL for cheap from other places that are cheaper, and more seasoned. I have no idea how accurate this philosophy is, but it certainly explains their behavior as to where they allocate resources.

Assuming OL is out, I'd love Johnnie Newton or Byron Murphy as Wilkins replacements, or Latu/Verse as edge guys at 21, and best available WR at 55 but i wouldnt be mad if they took Legette as reach at 21 if they identify him as their guy. I see alot of DK Metcalf, from what im told. I also wouldnt rule out McDaniel falling in love with Xavier Worthy, who is officially the fastest man to test for the draft.
