Beane seemed pretty convinced last year that they would get a 3rd. Someone with the league office must have given him some bad info. That's frustrating to not have a 3rd now after the Douglas trade. So we got a 1st, 2nd, and now 9 picks on day 3. I would expect some trade ups unless they really like the depth of this draft.
Bills general manager Brandon Beane himself had stated that the team expected to receive a third-round pick in the compensatory system and that he was making plans around that in the 2023 run of free agency to not jeopardize that expected pick.
Whether the governing body of compensatory picks made an error here or not is unknown since the precise formula for awarding the picks isn’t published, but unless there is another mea culpa by the league, the Bills will have to make due with a compensatory pick one round lower than they would have preferred.
