Bills’ brief draft history since 2017

An overview of the Buffalo Bills draft picks since 2017

The Buffalo Bills have made 22 draft picks since Sean McDermott was named head coach of the team in 2017.

While Doug Whaley was the general manager for the 2017 draft, his lame-duck status ensured that McDermott would be the guiding force with those selections. Current GM Brandon Beane was hired a short time later. The Bills have made a wide range of picks over the past three years.
