The NFL Draft is just around the corner and with just over 48 hours to go until the big day, teams are starting to make final pushes to move up or down to get who they want. Two teams that have been heavily rumored as wanting to move around are the Buffalo Bills and Detroit Lions, but Ian Rapoport states neither team is going to break the bank to trade up into the top 5.

The Lions have been hot after Sammy Watkins but could target someone like Khalil Mack or Jadeveon Clowney depending on how high they trade. The same can be said for the Bills, although they may try to land Mike Evans head of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers or possibly even Jake Matthews or Greg Robinson.

We may not see either team trade up, but it’s clear that they want to do so at the right price.
