The 2024 Buffalo Bills schedule has been released, and with the NFL draft over, the team is close to finalizing their roster. While in the quiet period before training camp, general manager Brandon Beane has a chance to make some roster additions to strengthen the team for the upcoming season. Here are three top trade targets that could help round out the Bills’ roster.
One potential target is wide receiver Treylon Burks from the Tennessee Titans. The Bills’ wide receiver depth chart for 2024 is still a work in progress, with some rookies and journeyman players currently taking the lead. Burks, a young and promising player at 6-foot-2, 225 pounds with good speed and hands, was a high draft pick for the Titans in 2022. However, due to injuries and underperformance, it seems his time with the Titans might be coming to an end. If he becomes available for trade at a discounted price, the Bills could benefit from considering him as a potential addition to their team.
The Bills faced losses at the cornerback position this offseason, with Tre’Davious White and Dane Jackson leaving for the Rams and Panthers, respectively. Despite having Rasul Douglas, Christian Benford, Taron Johnson, Kaiir Elam, and Cam Lewis, the secondary is not as strong as before. Acquiring another cornerback, like Greg Newsome II from the Browns, who is relatively affordable, could bolster the defense. Moreover, losing Pro Bowl safeties Jordan Poyer and Micah Hyde was a significant blow to the Bills, given their stellar performance over the past years. While the team has replacements in Taylor Rapp and Cole Bishop, the lack of a proven playmaker in the backfield is a concern.
