Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane has a history of drafting players who he brought in for top-30 visits. Last year, it was Keon Coleman.
Which prospect visiting Buffalo will be the next Bill?
NFL teams can host up to 30 prospects at their facilities for interviews with coaches and staff, medical evaluations and building tours prior to the draft. On-field workouts are not allowed at a top-30 visit.
Beane has drafted 11 players who had predraft meetings at One Bills Drive since he became general manager in 2017. First-round picks Josh Allen (2018), Tremaine Edmunds (2018), Ed Oliver (2019) and Kaiir Elam (2022) attended Buffalo top-30 visits. Beane also selected Nathan Peterman (2017, Round 5), Dawson Knox (2017, Round 3), Vosean Joseph (2017, Round 5), Jack Anderson (2021, Round 7), James Cook (2022, Round 2), O'Cyrus Torrence (2023, Round 2) and Coleman (2024, Round 2) following predraft visits. There were no top-30 visits in 2020 due to COVID.
Buffalo has 10 draft picks entering the NFL Draft, which begins on Thursday, April 24 in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
Here are the prospects meeting with the Bills.
Cornerback
Trey Amos, Mississippi: Amos was a first-team All-SEC selection after recording 50 tackles, three interceptions, one forced fumble, four tackles for loss and 13 passes defended. The Bills interviewed Amos, who could be a first or second round pick, at the NFL Combine. (Amos revealed the visits on a The Insiders podcast with Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo)
Shavon Revel Jr., East Carolina:Revel is a gifted athlete who had two interceptions, including a pick six, in three games to start the season before suffering a town ACL in practice in September. He could still be a first round pick and his surgeon informed NFL teams that Revel Jr. will be "cleared for all strength and conditioning activities" for offseason programs. (Visit reported by Tom Pelissero)
Dorian Strong, Virginia Tech: Strong, who is projected as a mid--round pick, is intelligent, has good ball skills and had seven career interceptions at Virginia Tech. (Visit reported by NYUpstate)
Defensive tackle
Tyleik Williams, Ohio State: Williams dropped more than 30 pounds since arriving at Ohio State and finished college with 136 tackles, 11.5 sacks, 28 tackles for loss and a national championship. (Visit reported by NYUpstate)
Edgerusher
Oluwafemi Oladejo, UCLA: Oladejo transitioned from linebacker to edge rusher. The athletic 21-year-old had 240 tackles, six sacks, two interceptions, three fumble recoveries and 25 tackles for loss over two seasons each at California and UCLA. (Visit repoted by Justin Melo)

He finished third among wide receivers in the 40-yard dash (4.34 seconds), third in the vertical jump (40"), third in the broad jump (11'), second in the 3-cone (6.75 seconds) and third in the 20-yard shuttle (4.12 seconds).
