Overview

  • Buffalo traded a 2026 second-round pick to Chicago for D.J. Moore after an earlier 2025 deadline inquiry was rebuffed, according to GM Brandon Beane.
  • Head coach Joe Brady, who coached Moore in Carolina, said the receiver is dynamic and showed no drop-off on tape, projecting a quick fit with Josh Allen.
  • Beane said the team has spoken with free agent Brandin Cooks, signaling continued interest in affordable veteran depth at wide receiver.
  • Reports also link Buffalo to more options, including interest in Packers receiver Dontayvion Wicks and an ESPN mock projecting Indiana’s Omar Cooper in the first round.
  • The Bills exercised tight end Dalton Kincaid’s fifth-year option, locking in a key target as limited cap space steers the team toward lower-cost additions.
