The NFL announced the teams set to receive compensatory draft picks in the 2020 NFL Draft, and the Buffalo Bills did not receive any for the fourth consecutive year. Given the number of free agents they signed last year relative to the number they lost, this comes as no surprise.
The Bills lost only one free agent who qualifies under the compensatory formula. John Miller, the team’s starting right guard in 2018, signed a contract with the Cincinnati Bengals that averages $5.5 million a year. According to Over the Cap, his contract was canceled out in the formula when the Bills signed tight end Tyler Kroft to a deal with an APY of $6.
