The Buffalo Bills have added a dynamic piece to their offense in the fifth round of the NFL Draft by selecting Jackson Hawes from Georgia Tech. Hawes, known as the best blocking tight end in the draft class, embodies the team-first mentality that has fueled the Bills’ success. His blocking skills are not just an extension of the offensive line; they represent a commitment to physicality that complements the style of play coach Joe Brady advocates, where every player contributes to the team’s success.

While Hawes has demonstrated receiving capability with 195 yards on 16 receptions at Georgia Tech, his greatest asset lies in his ability to deliver crushing blocks, setting the tone for both passing and running plays. With Dalton Kincaid established as the No. 1 tight end, Hawes’ arrival indicates a strategic plan that could eventually see him challenge Dawson Knox’s position. His unique mindset and physicality could elevate the Bills’ already formidable offense.
