The 2026 NFL Draft is in the books, giving us a chance to reevaluate depth charts and identify players whose stock has gone up or gone down. In this series, we will be taking a look at players who either gained or lost value based on what their team did during the draft. Buffalo Bills Draft Class Round 2, Pick 35: TJ Parker , DE Clemson Round 2, Pick 62: Davison Igbinosun, CB Ohio State Round 4, Pick 102: Jude Bowry, OT Boston College Round 4, Pick 125: Skyler Bell , WR Connecticut Round 4, Pick 126: Kaleb Elarms-Orr , LB TCU Round 5, Pick 167: Jalon Kilgore , S South Carolina Round 5, Pick 181: Zane Durant, DT Penn State Round 7, Pick 220: Toriano Pride Jr., CB Missouri Round 7, Pick 239: Tommy Doman Jr., P Florida Round 7, Pick 241: Ar’Maj Reed-Adams, G Texas A&M Winner: James Cook , RB The Bills were not going to bring in serious competition for Cook this off-season. He signed a new contract prior to the 2025 season, a year that became his best yet at the NFL level. He is a strong starting running back, equipped to handle a significant workload. Buffalo, however, did not even bother adding depth at running back. A weak class may have contributed, but they also had ten picks and did not deem it a big enough need to dabble. Cook is locked into another heavy workload in 2026 and remains a clear dynasty RB1. Loser: Khalil Shakir SUBSCRIBE TO DLF PREMIUM! Gain Instant Access to this resource and so much more!.
