ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — One day, Brandon Beane joked the Buffalo Bills are going to select a receiver in each of the seven rounds of the NFL draft.
The next, the Bills general manager saying there’s no lock he’s drafting a receiver in the first round.
Don’t be fooled.
Hard as Beane has been working at trying to keep everyone guessing in the wake of trading Stefon Diggs to Houston, it would be difficult to imagine the Bills passing up on filling what stands as their biggest need — and in a draft class projected to be deep at receiver.
While Ohio State’s Marvin Harrison Jr. will most assuredly be gone by Buffalo’s scheduled pick at No. 28, the Texas junior tandem of Adonai Mitchell and Xavier Worthy, or perhaps Georgia’s Ladd McConkey, could be available.
Leave it to Beane to hedge his bets.
“If all our first-round receivers are gone and the next guy is well into the second round, but we have other positions, we’re going to take the other position,” Beane said. “You still gotta take good football players. And even if we don’t get the player that everyone is looking for in April, it doesn’t mean there’s not other ways to do it.”
