The Buffalo Bills have traded up to the 41st overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. In full, Buffalo acquired the 41st, 72nd, and 240th picks from the Chicago Bears in exchange for the 56th, 62nd, and 109th picks. The Bills drafted cornerback Maxwell Hairston with their own pick in the first round Thursday, and now they're making an aggressive trade to move up in the second round. The deal also arms Chicago with two new second-round picks, plus a fourth-round selection. The Bears have been very devoted to improving their offense so far, selecting Michigan tight end
Colston Loveland and Missouri wide receiver
Luther Burden.
UPDATE: Buffalo took South Carolina defensive tackle T.J. Sanders with the 41st overall pick.--Andersen Pickard - RotoBallerSource: Ian Rapoport

The Miami Dolphins have selected Arizona guard Jonah Savaiinaea with the 37th pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Miami acquired this pick, along with the 143rd overall selection, from the Las Vegas Raiders in exchange for the 48th, 98th, and 135th picks. Savaiinaea impressed at the combine and was one of the top remaining interior linemen available at this point in the draft. Miami will presumably deploy him at guard, though he does have some experience at tackle, too. Regardless of where he plants his hand, Savaiinaea should be able to provide major support in the trenches after the Dolphins lost Terron Armstead to retirement this offseason.

The Seattle Seahawks have selected South Carolina safety Nick Emmanwori with the 35th pick in the NFL Draft. This pick originally belonged to the Tennessee Titans but was flipped to Seattle in a trade while Tennessee was on the clock Friday night. In exchange for the 35th pick, Seattle sent the 52nd and 82nd picks back to the Titans. Emmanwori totaled 88 tackles (including three tackles for loss) and four interceptions through 13 games during his final collegiate season. He is a physical playmaker known for his skillful tackling and ability to disrupt plays. His good downfield speed makes him a candidate to start immediately on defense.

The Houston Texans selected Iowa State wide receiver
Jayden Higgins with the 34th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Houston obtained this pick from the New York Giants, who previously moved up to select
Jaxson Dart in Round 1. After four wide receivers were drafted in the first round of the draft Thursday night, Higgins became the first receiver selected in the second round Friday. He caught 87 passes for 1,183 yards and nine touchdowns during his final collegiate season. Known for his large wingspan and outstanding ball skills, Higgins could contribute right away with the Texans. Houston lost
Stefon Diggs via free agency this offseason, and they'll likely open the 2025 season without
Tank Dell (knee) as he recovers from a torn ACL. Higgins will have a chance to earn reps in three-receiver sets alongside
Nico Collins and offseason addition
Christian Kirk.

Sources tell FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz that several teams that are picking in the high 30s and 40s are calling the Cleveland Browns (No. 33 overall), Houston Texans (No. 34) and Tennessee Titans (No. 35) about potential trades to try and come up early into the second round of this year's NFL draft on Friday. Wide receiver and edge rusher are viewed as two positions as having big drop-offs in talent and a wide range of evaluations, which is why those two positions are expected to be targeted by teams early in the second round. NFL Network draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah thinks that Iowa State receivers
Jayden Higgins and
Jaylin Noel and Missouri wideout
Luther Burden III could come off the board early on Friday, as well as edge rushers such as Marshall's Mike Green, Boston College's Donovan Ezeiruaku and Arkansas' Landon Jackson.

NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe reports that the Cleveland Browns are fielding calls for the first pick of Round 2 on Friday night at No. 33 overall. The Browns already agreed to a blockbuster trade with the Jacksonville Jaguars at the top of the first round on Thursday that moved them from the No. 2 pick to No. 5, where they selected Michigan defensive tackle Mason Graham. Cleveland has more reason to trade back in the second round after acquiring the No. 36 overall pick from the Jaguars on Thursday. If the Browns stay put with the first pick in the second round, it's possible they could take Colorado quarterback
Shedeur Sanders after he fell out of the first round entirely. Cleveland is one of the most QB-needy team with
Deshaun Watson (Achilles) expected to miss all of 2025 and with only
Joe Flacco and
Kenny Pickett their current healthy options.

The Athletic's Dianna Russini reports that the Pittsburgh Steelers have been receiving calls about the availability of wide receiver
George Pickens, according to sources. The Steelers are open to conversations as they navigate the second round of this year's NFL draft. Pittsburgh gave away their second-round pick this year to acquire wideout
DK Metcalf from the Seattle Seahawks earlier this offseason. At No. 21 overall in the first round on Thursday night, the Steelers passed on a quarterback and running back to select Oregon defensive tackle Derrick Harmon. They are now weighing their needs at QB and RB heading into the second round on Friday night against a potential trade of Pickens, who has displayed maturity issues in his time with the team. The Steelers are excited about the possibility of having a 1-2 punch of Metcalf and Pickens, but they might cave in if they're presented with a great offer.

Now that the Tennessee Titans officially took Miami quarterback
Cam Ward with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft on Thursday night, former second-round QB
Will Levis could be traded soon after going 5-16 a a starter with more turnovers (26 interceptions and fumbles lost combined) than touchdown passes (21). General manager Ran Carthon, who traded up for Levis in 2023, has already been fired, and Levis was benched in 2024. The Titans have insisted that Levis will be given a chance to compete with Ward, but the Titans still lack a third-round pick in this year's draft, and trading Levis could get them back into that round. The 25-year-old's dynasty stock has already taken a big hit after he looked terrible as Tennessee's starter last year, and now with Ward in town, the best hope for his long-term value is a trade out of town.

Carolina Panthers rookie wide receiver
Tetairoa McMillan said that quarterback
Bryce Young told head coach Dave Canales and general manager Dan Morgan that the team needed to draft him. Young vouched for McMillan, and the Panthers listed and selected the 22-year-old Arizona product with the eighth overall pick of the 2025 NFL draft on Thursday night. The 6-foot-4 pass-catcher excels on contested catches down the field and should immediately be a starter in three-wide sets for the team in 2025 next to
Xavier Legette and veteran
Adam Thielen. McMillan will give Young a wide catch radius, but there are questions about how much separation he will be able to get on a consistent basis at the next level. If it's true that Young was adamant about the team drafting McMillan, the two could quickly form a strong connection that helps McMillan become fantasy relevant in Year 1.
