BREAKING NEWS: Bills Confirms The Replacement For Von Miller

Buffalo might find themselves in a position where they need to replenish their roster through the draft, particularly to fill the void left by departing veterans and impending free agents they cannot afford to retain. NFL analyst Daniel Jeremiah, in his second mock draft, suggests that the Bills could address their need for a pass rusher by selecting Chop Robinson from Penn State as a potential replacement for Von Miller. Jeremiah acknowledges that while Robinson’s statistical output may not be eye-catching, he possesses the necessary attributes for success at the professional level. With the possibility of losing edge rushers Leonard Floyd and A.J. Epenesa to free agency, Robinson could emerge as a new partner for Greg Rousseau in Buffalo’s pass-rushing unit.

Robinson’s collegiate journey saw him transfer to Penn State from Maryland in 2022, with his sophomore season being particularly impressive, recording career highs in various defensive categories. Although his junior season did not match the same level of production, he still contributed significantly to the team. Robinson’s achievements, including being named a second-team All-American before the 2023 season, underscore his potential as a valuable addition to an NFL roster.

Buffalo faces uncertainty in its pass-rushing department, with the impending free agency of key contributors like Leonard Floyd and A.J. Epenesa, alongside questions surrounding Von Miller’s future with the team following a subpar 2023 season. Considering these factors, selecting Robinson in the draft could fortify Buffalo’s pass rush. However, some may argue that prioritizing an offensive weapon for quarterback Josh Allen should take precedence. If the Bills opt to part ways with Miller, Robinson would have an opportunity to step into a significant role immediately.
