Tonight could end up being a VERY long night for Bills Mafia.

The NFL has turned the NFL draft into primetime TV, and with that comes a long night for fans of the Buffalo Bills.

What Time Will The Buffalo Bills Draft Tonight?

The NFL draft starts at 8 pm, and the Bills are drafting 30th overall, which, based on the history of previous drafts, the Bills should be announcing their 1st round draft pick around 11:27 pm. Of course, that only happens if the Bills don't trade up or down during the draft. Last year, the Bills traded out of the 1st round, making their first pick of the draft on Friday.

How Many Draft Picks Do The Buffalo Bills Have?

Heading into tonight's draft, the Buffalo Bills have 10 total picks. They have a 1st round, two 2nd rounds, two 4th rounds, three 5th rounds, and two 6th round picks. The chances of the Bills using all ten are slim to none. They could package some to move up in the draft or collect picks for the draft next year.
