Who did the Bills take in the first round? What did the Bills trade for the 23rd pick?

The first round of the 2022 NFL draft will take place on Thursday, April 28 at 8 p.m. ET. The second and third rounds will begin at 7 p.m. on Friday, April 29. Rounds four through seven are scheduled to begin at noon on Saturday.

Soon after acquiring pick 23, the Ravens traded it to the Buffalo Bills in exchange for picks 25 and 130. The move is the Ravens’ second of the 2022 draft and there could be more to come, as the team now has six fourth-round picks.

Kaiir Elam was selected by the Buffalo Bills with that pick. Elam is the fourth straight defensive player the Bills have selected with a first-round pick, following Gregory Rousseau in 2021.

Kaiir Elam is a cornerback for the Buffalo Bills of the National Football League (NFL). He attended Florida and was drafted by the Bills in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft.

As a senior, he had 71 tackles, three sacks, and nine interceptions, earning him the Palm Beach 5A-1A football defensive player of the year award. ESPN ranked Elam as the fourth-best high school football prospect in his class, and he committed to play college football at the University of Florida.
