As the 2026 NFL Draft approaches, the AFC East teams are gearing up for significant changes that could impact Fantasy Football rosters dramatically. Each team has a wish list of needs and preferences, aiming for scenarios that will enhance their Fantasy prospects.

Buffalo Bills

• Picks: Round 1 (26 overall), Round 3 (91), Round 4 (126), Round 5 (165, 168), Round 6 (182), Round 7 (220)
• Team Needs: IOL, EDGE, LB, CB, WR, OT
• Fantasy Want: Long-term No. 1 receiver
• Fantasy Don't Want: Running back depth

The Bills strengthened their receiving corps by acquiring D.J. Moore, making him the primary target for Josh Allen. Analysts suggest selecting KC Concepcion from Texas A&M at No. 26 to secure a future star. Avoiding a running back pick is crucial for maximizing James Cook’s touches.

Miami Dolphins

• Team Needs: WR, CB, S, TE, IOL, EDGE, DL, LB
• Fantasy Want: Pass catchers
• Fantasy Don't Want: Running back depth

With De'Von Achane leading the running back group, the Dolphins need to bolster their receiving options after losing Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill. Analysts predict they will draft Kenyon Sadiq and Denzel Boston, enhancing their offensive capabilities.

New England Patriots

• Picks: Round 1 (31), Round 2 (63), Round 3 (95), Round 4 (125, 131), Round 5 (171), Round 6 (191, 198, 202, 212), Round 7 (247)

• Fantasy Want: A.J. Brown trade
• Fantasy Don't Want: Running back depth

The Patriots are eyeing a potential trade for A.J. Brown, which could transform their passing game. If the trade doesn't materialize, they may look to draft a receiver to support Drake Maye.

New York Jets

• Picks: Round 1 (2, 16), Round 2 (33, 44), Round 4 (103, 140), Round 5 (179), Round 7 (228, 242)
