The 2018 NFL Draft will be an important one for the Buffalo Bills. The team is going through a massive and measured roster reconstruction, one which started early last offseason when Sean McDermott was named head coach of the team.

Throughout all of the changes, Buffalo was able to acquire several draft picks in the 2018 NFL Draft. The team must effectively utilize their picks in order to enter a new era as a franchise.

Here are five ways that the Bills can dominate the 2018 draft.

Trade up for the quarterback of their dreams

If Buffalo is unable to acquire a top quarterback, then this year’s draft is a waste.

This idea was put into motion last April after the team obtained Kansas City’s 2018 first-round selection. The Bills’ long-term solution at quarterback definitely is not on their roster, and the 2018 draft will be a historic one for the club in finding this player.

This should be the year in which Buffalo uses their assets to obtain a top quarterback. Looking at Jared Goff and Carson Wentz deals as a guide, it appears the going rate is at least three picks in the current draft, plus two picks in subsequent years.

Buffalo does have a bit of a challenge, as their selections are later in round one then those of Los Angeles and Philadelphia were in the 2016 draft. However, both teams were aggressive in placing themselves in a position to make such a trade. The Bills have done the same with their trade capital. A solid haul to move up into the top-two spots of the draft would include both of Buffalo’s first-round picks, one of their second-round picks in this year’s draft, plus a first-and-third-round pick in next year’s draft. That type of trade would be favorable for a team such as the New York Giants, who hold the number two pick in April’s draft.

Domination in this draft begins with the Bills moving up to select the quarterback who they feel has the potential to be special, whether it be UCLA’s Josh Rosen, USC’s Sam Darnold, or Oklahoma’s Baker Mayfield.
