Mock trade has Bills landing Khalil Mack to take defense to another level

A mock trade proposed by FanSided's Chris Landers suggests the Buffalo Bills acquire edge rusher Khalil Mack from the Los Angeles Chargers in exchange for a 2027 fourth-round draft pick. Despite a 3-1 start to the season, writer Brandon Ray argues that the Bills' defense requires reinforcement across multiple levels under defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard, making Mack an ideal candidate to bolster the pass rush.

The Chargers sit at 0-4, making Mack a potential trade candidate. Mack has recorded three sacks and 14 tackles through four games this season, and Landers highlights that adding the veteran alongside league sack leader Greg Rousseau would significantly upgrade Buffalo's defensive front against elite AFC quarterbacks.
