The 2025 NFL Draft is underway in Green Bay! This draft tracker will be updated throughout the weekend with every Buffalo Bills draft pick.
ROUND 1, PICK 30 — Maxwell Hairston, CB, Kentucky
The Bills selected Kentucky CB Maxwell Hairston with the 30th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Hairston is a 6-foot, 183-pound corner from West Bloomfield, MI. Hairston had a standout performance at the NFL Combine, running a 4.28 40-yard dash (fastest among all defensive backs).
Notable accolades:
- Tied a Kentucky record with three career interceptions returned for touchdowns
- Made 20 starts and played 32 career games
- Posted six career interceptions and 89 tackles
- Led the SEC with five interceptions in 2023
Scouting report:
"A fluid mover with A-plus speed, Hairston moves fairly effortlessly in all areas of the field. He plays to his help in man-to-man coverage while also showing conviction and awareness in Cover 3. He is a natural making plays at the catch point, but he's also more scrappy than strong, which will show against physical NFL receivers and in run support." — The Athletic's Dane Brugler
"Hairston is a lean, athletic cornerback with ideal play speed and fluidity. In press coverage, he incorporates a one-hand jam before turning and carrying vertical routes. He has plenty of burst/speed. In off coverage, he likes to settle and catch receivers at the break point... Overall, Hairston offers an enticing blend of movement skills and production," NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah
