OBL 4/9: Favorite Draft Prospect To The Bills? Maddy Glab Dissects Latest Mock Draft Watch

April 9, 2026·1 hr 30 min·8 clips
Chris Brown and Steve Tasker challenge Bills fans to name their two favorite draft prospects, warning they'll be judged.
It starts loose and local. Chris Brown and Steve Tasker sound genuinely relieved by a second straight sunny day, even with more cold hanging around the edges. Then the board takes over. Casey Concepcion has been mocked to the Bills enough that his availability becomes the whole hinge. They are not penciling him in, and honestly, they sound right not to. Dane Brugler ranks Concepcion 21st overall, which makes pick 26 feel more like hoping than planning. The math is not complicated. Not every team above Buffalo needs a receiver, but it only takes one team wanting the best one left to wreck the plan. That is where Jordan Tyson's April 17th workout sits, as a possible lever that could reorder the receivers. Carnell Tate is expected to go early, probably in the top 10. Makai Lemon gets the more interesting debate, with clean route work running up against questions about size and speed. Nobody acts like the league has one clean answer there. The room figures teams may be split on whether Lemon is really the second receiver in the class. Ray tightens the whole thing up. He likes Cassius Howell and Casey Concepcion, but once CBS pushes Concepcion to top wide receiver and number 12 overall, he has a hard time seeing the Bills getting a real shot. The hosts leave the door open a crack. Tyson could still jump back ahead with a strong workout, though nobody sounds eager to bet the show on that. So defense slides back into view. Howell might be gone too, and Buffalo could hit pick 26 with fewer offensive answers than fans want. Pencil in uncertainty, basically.
