Fans were left shocked on Thursday by the Buffalo Bills’ move in the NFL Draft. Despite having the No. 28 pick, the Bills traded it to their rival, the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs then used this pick to select Xavier Worthy, who set a record for the fastest 40-yard dash time in NFL Combine history.
Supporters were astonished that the Bills would hand over their pick to a team that has repeatedly thwarted them in the playoffs, especially for the purpose of allowing Kansas City to draft a player who has been compared to Tyreek Hill.

Buffalo handing KC Worthy on a silver platter is an interesting tactic

Josh Allen doesn't need someone like this
in fact, the Bills should just give him to the Chiefs https://t.co/vHVuzcakgm

I’m trying to understand what the Bills just did. I’ve got nothing.

Adding to the surprise, the Bills also traded away their No. 32 spot, moving to No. 33.
The Chiefs appear quite pleased with their acquisition of Worthy.
“Worthy is a good route runner,” Chiefs head coach Andy Reid commented. “He’s not big, at least in terms of weight. But you’ll see the toughness he possesses, which stood out on film. He’s a tremendous worker.”

If Worthy becomes a dynamic player in the NFL and makes life difficult for the Bills when they face each other, you can bet this trade will be talked about endlessly.
