Very similar to last year's draft, eight teams ended up making moves to get higher up the draft board in Round 1, including the Buffalo Bills, who moved up two spots from the 27th pick to 25 in order to select tight end Dalton Kincaid.
Three quarterbacks were taken in the first four selections of the NFL Draft, in addition to the Houston Texans taking a big swing by trading up to pick second and third overall.
