At the close of the 2018 season, the Buffalo Bills made it clear they want to see more from the tight ends on their roster. Cutting Charles Clay then adding Tyler Kroft and Jake Fischer in free agency, the Bills also addressed the position via the draft. After adding Dawson Knox in the third round, Buffalo double-dipped in the seventh with Tommy Sweeney. The 228th pick, Sweeney hails from Boston College, whose mascot is a less valuable version of SUNY Brockport’s.
A four-year player for Boston, Sweeney had consistent production from his sophomore season to his senior.
