Wilson's 2026 NFL mock draft 7.0: Bills get aggressive and trade for top WR, keep Super Bowl window wide open

Buffalo makes its move as four Ohio State players go in the top seven picks
The 2026 NFL Scouting Combine is over and we've all had time to react to the 40 times, vertical leaps and arm length to have nuanced and reasoned takes on why a player with years worth of tape is now demonstrably better or worse than he was a week ago.
I'm mostly joking but we're all guilty of letting our biases creep in after seeing most of the players below perform in Indy. And while the on-field workouts have some importance, I am here to confirm that the tape is still, in fact, the tape.
I do not care that Carnell Tate ran a 4.53.
Because, it turns out, that time is a) in dispute, according to The Athletic, and b) Tate plays way faster than that. It's why I have the Bills trading all the way up to No. 3 to land the Ohio State wideout, and take their middle-of-the-road-in-the-AFC Super Bowl chances and puts them in overdrive.
Yes, the cost to move up is steep – and history says that shouldn't scare contenders. The Falcons did something similar back in 2011 when they jumped 21 spots to take Julio Jones. Five years later, they should have won the Super Bowl. And even though they fell short no one would argue that going to get Jones wasn't the right decision.
