Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane entered the 2025 NFL draft with a clear roster objective: improve the defense. He used the team’s first five picks on that side of the ball, which has shaken up the depth chart as the offseason focus shifts to organized team activities (OTAs).

The Buffalo Bills added Arkansas State IOL Jacob Bayer as an undrafted free agent after the 2025 NFL draft.

The Buffalo Bills had nine draft picks throughout the 2025 draft. Seven of those picks were made on the defensive side of the ball. There is good reason for this. Buffalo's offense is situated nicely with an MVP quarterback, a strong offensive line, and a dominant collection of skill players moving forward.
