The Buffalo Bills could be looking to make a few trades ahead of the NFL trade deadline on October 31st at 4 p.m. EST.
The team is reportedly focused on one specific position, however. In an article on The Athletic, Dianna Russini reported that the Bills are scanning the market for a cornerback.
Here is what Russini wrote in her article.
The Baltimore Ravens are looking to add a running back, the Cleveland Browns are looking to add a receiver and the Buffalo Bills are scanning the cornerback market. The Washington Commanders are listening to offers on Chase Young and Montez Sweat. They want a second-rounder but have only received offers in the third-round range.
Buffalo’s interest in the cornerback position should not come as a surprise. The team lost Tre’Davious White for the year to an Achilles injury early in the season. Christian Benford and Dane Jackson, the team’s current starters at cornerback, have been banged up at times this season with both missing time due to injury. As for depth behind the starters, the team has Kaiir Elam, Siran Neal and Cam Lewis. Elam, the team’s 2022 1st round pick, was a healthy scratch on Thursday Night Football and may be moved at the deadline as he doesn’t fit Buffalo’s defensive scheme. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported that teams are interested in acquiring Elam. Moving Elam may be dependent on the Bills acquiring a cornerback in a deal at the deadline.
After Sunday’s games, many teams will have a better idea as to whether they are buyers or sellers at the deadline. Depending on who is available, Buffalo may be able to swing a deal for a new cornerback at the deadline.
