Bills eye massive 300lb tackle for 2027 draft
5 Aug
Summary
- Buffalo Bills are projected to draft Miami Hurricanes' Justin Scott in 2027.
- Scott is a 303-pound defensive tackle expected to bolster run defense.
- The Bills made aggressive moves in the 2026 offseason for championship contention.
As the Buffalo Bills prepare for the 2026 NFL season as AFC contenders, their focus extends to future roster strengthening. A 2027 mock draft projects the Bills will select Miami Hurricanes' defensive tackle Justin Scott with their first-round pick. Scott, weighing 303 pounds, is noted for his run-stopping abilities at the college level and is seen as a significant potential addition to bolster the Bills' defense. Scott has recorded 33 tackles and two sacks over two seasons with the Hurricanes, with potential to improve his draft stock in the upcoming 2026 college season. This forward-thinking approach complements the Bills' aggressive 2026 offseason moves, which included acquiring wide receiver D.J. Moore and defensive players Bradley Chubb and C.J. Gardner-Johnson, all aimed at immediate Super Bowl contention.
