Hairston made Second Team All-SEC in 2023 and missed five games in his final season with a shoulder injury.

The Bills used the No. 30 overall pick in round one on Hairston. He’s projected to sign Hairston to a four-year, $15,238,238 contract that includes a $7,722,354 signing bonus. The contract includes a fifth-year option for the team to pick up in 2028.

In his collegiate career, Hairston appeared in 32 games and made 20 starts over three seasons. He recorded 89 total tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, three forced fumbles, 16 passes defended and six interceptions.

Walker, 21, was a three-year starter at Kentucky. He earned Third Team All-SEC honors in 2024, was Second Team All-SEC in 2023, and Freshman All-American and All-SEC Freshman in 2022. 

Lance Zierlein of NFL.com compares him to former Dolphins and Bills DT Jordan Phillips.

The Bills used the No. 109 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft on Walker. He’s projected to sign a four-year, $5,245,097 contract with a $1,045,097 signing bonus.
