Bills predicted to land ‘dangerous’ WR in 2026 NFL mock draft
There was a lot of hope among the fan base that the Buffalo Bills would be active during the 2025 NFL trade deadline.
Atop the wish list was a No. 1 receiver target capable of taking the passing attack to the next level. Names such as Chris Olave were floated, but that never gained real traction. In the end, Buffalo didn’t make any moves and will continue to bank on Josh Allen’s ability to elevate the receivers around him.

Looking beyond 2025, however, the Bills can’t continue with this strategy. If they’re ever going to reach their full potential, Buffalo has to add an explosive wideout.
The Athletic’s Nick Baumgardner agrees, which is why he has the Bills selecting Texas A&M wide receiver KC Concepcion in the first round of his latest 2026 NFL mock draft. Baumgardner says Concepcion is one of the “most dangerous” players in the country, which is what Buffalo needs at receiver.
”When Concepcion’s playing with consistent hands, he’s one of the most dangerous offensive weapons in the country. A wide receiver who’s extremely explosive and almost always open, he’d be a lot of fun — and add a weapon on special teams — in Buffalo.”

A transfer from North Carolina, Concepcion has 36 receptions for 545 yards with seven touchdowns in eight games. He’s dangerous out of the backfield as well, evidenced by his 320 rushing yards as a freshman in 2023.

This year, Concepcion has taken on a larger role in the return game as well, which is another way he can help Buffalo, should he be the selection.
Whether the selection is Concepcion or another wide receiver, it would be difficult to see Buffalo addressing any other position in the upcoming draft. It’s been one of their weakest links and they have to get it figured out in a hurry.

According to sources at Jackson State University, Sanders’ foundation covered more than $500,000 in outstanding student loan balances earlier this year. What sets this act apart is that it was done
“We were notified that an anonymous donor had paid off the remaining student loan balances for the Class of 2023,” said a Jackson State spokesperson. “When we found out it was Shedeur Sanders, we weren’t surprised. He’s always been a leader who steps up to make a difference, both on and off the field.”
Sanders’ time at Jackson State was marked by historic success, where he became one of college football’s brightest stars, leading the team to multiple championships and earning recognition as one of the nation’s top quarterbacks. His leadership, both as a player and as an individual, has made a lasting impact on his teammates, coaches, and fans. But it’s his continued commitment to giving back that truly defines his legacy.
The university worked directly with Sanders’ team to identify 2023 graduates still carrying student loan debt. Within weeks, those debts were fully paid off, and graduates received letters from the university notifying them of the generous donation. The news was met with shock, gratitude, and appreciation from students who had long carried the burden of their loans.
“I couldn’t believe it when I got the letter,” said one of the graduates. “To have someone like Shedeur Sanders — who has achieved so much — give back in such a meaningful way… it’s life-changing. This will help me build a future without financial stress.”
In addition to his student loan relief efforts, Sanders has been heavily involved in youth mentoring programs, sports scholarships, and community outreach in both Cleveland and Jackson. His philanthropic efforts continue to make a difference in the lives of young people, particularly those facing financial challenges.
As his story continues to unfold, Sanders is being celebrated not just as a rising NFL star but as a leader whose commitment to helping others is reshaping what it means to be a professional athlete. His actions serve as a powerful reminder that true greatness is measured not just by athletic accomplishments, but by the lives you touch and the legacy you leave behind.
