REPORT: Buffalo Bills to Land 48-TD Threat to Pair with Josh Allen

The Buffalo Bills fell just one win short of reaching the Super Bowl in 2024. In their AFC Championship loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, they had opportunities to win but failed to execute in key moments. Heading into the offseason, many expected Buffalo to make bold roster moves, but that hasn’t been the case so far. Their most notable additions include defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi, defensive end Joey Bosa, and wide receiver Joshua Palmer. However, they haven’t significantly upgraded the talent around franchise quarterback Josh Allen, though Allen did secure a six-year, $330 million contract extension.

Looking ahead to the 2025 NFL Draft, Buffalo holds the No. 30 overall pick in the first round. In a recent mock draft by Ian Valentino of A to Z Sports, the Bills are projected to select Ohio State running back TreVeyon Henderson, a dynamic playmaker who scored 48 total touchdowns in college. With James Cook’s future uncertain—potentially commanding a $15 million annual salary—Valentino suggests Buffalo could trade him and replace him with a rookie on a more affordable contract.

Henderson had a standout 2024 season, helping lead Ohio State to a national championship. He rushed for 1,016 yards and 10 touchdowns on 144 carries while adding 27 receptions for 284 yards and another score. NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein compares him to current star Aaron Jones, highlighting his elite pass-blocking and explosive playmaking ability.
