Picked up by Buffalo
The Bills drafted Bell in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 125th overall.
ANALYSIS
Bell jumped up draft boards as a senior, compiling 101 catches for 1,278 yards and 13 touchdowns for UConn while leading FBS with seven 100-yard receiving efforts. He sports adequate size at 6-foot, 192 pounds, and he has an above-average ability to get open, but he's struggled with drops throughout his college career, amassing 24 over his four years as a regular contributor. He joins a Buffalo wideout room that has already added talent this offseason by trading for wideout DJ Moore from the Bears, but the club stood pat at wideout in the draft until Bell. Khalil Shakir, Joshua Palmer (ankle) and Keon Coleman all remain on the roster for Buffalo heading into 2026, so Bell may be hard-pressed to earn regular snaps and will likely be primarily relegated to a special-teams role as a rookie. That said, the Bills' receiving unit hasn't been among the better rooms in recent seasons, so there could be room for him to etch out a role in the future if Bell impresses the coaching staff.

Early Day 3 draft pick?
Jordan Reid of ESPN.com believes the Bills will select Bell in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 101st overall.
ANALYSIS
Bell was ranked as the 19th-best wide receiver on "The Beast" rankings from Dane Brugler of The Athletic, but the UConn product did not hear his name called over the first two days of the draft. He doesn't have the same size as other wideouts in the draft class, but Bell has a deep route tree that could help him thrive as a slot receiver at the NFL level. If selected by the Bills, Bell would have the chance to compete against Joshua Palmer, Keon Coleman and Tyrell Shavers for the WR3 spot behind DJ Moore and Khalil Shakir.
